E59: Supporting Someone #9: 3 Phrases to Help Someone Grieving (LIVE Book Party Talk Replay!)

In this special "Supporting Someone" episode, you'll hear the live recording of my author talk from the Of Course I'm Here Right Now book launch party in Chicago—a practical, story-driven breakdown of three phrases that help supporters show up for grieving people with confidence and care. You'll learn: Why grieving people tell themselves three core stories—"I'm crazy," "I'm alone," and "My life will be like this forever"—and how those stories shape their relationships and sense of self Why words are the most powerful free grief support tool available to anyone, regardless of money, time, or emotional bandwidth How three simple phrases—"Of course," "I'm here," and "Right now"—each interrupt one of those painful stories How to use these phrases across any type of loss, any time frame, and any medium—from sympathy cards to text messages sent years after the loss Watch the launch party on YouTube: https://youtu.be/YU3Yg1ON2Ik Get my new book, Of Course I'm Here Right Now: Three Actually Helpful Things to Say to Someone Grieving: https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/of-course-im-here-right-now RSVP to upcoming online events in April: https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/events ...
