E3: The grief no one talks about...

from If not now, then when...? (The Midlife Experiment) · host Sonja McKaiser

In this powerful and tender conversation, I sit down with Di Atherton, a certified death doula, grief guide, and Reiki Master, to explore the quieter forms of grief we experience in midlife.Midlife brings so many transitions: menopause, changing bodies, children leaving home, ageing parents, shifting roles, and evolving identities. It's a season of endings and beginnings, a series of small deaths that often go unspoken.Together, we dive into: - What it really means to grieve beyond the loss of a loved one- How to honour the grief of lost identities and past versions of ourselves- Why feeling your feelings is the most radical form of self-trust- Rituals to help you navigate endings with more grace and softness- How to reframe the narrative of ageing and step into midlife with powerThis episode is an invitation to slow down, exhale, and let yourself be human. Because sometimes, before we can rise, we need to grieve.Connect with DiCome hang out in my free Facebook community The Midlife Experiment.https://www.facebook.com/DiAthertonSpiralPath/
