Ep. 26 | When Old Grief Returns: How To Honor Feelings You Thought Were Done

from The Daily Ascent · host Molly Carmel

In today's episode, I'm talking about the kind of old grief that rises out of nowhere and asks to be felt. On Veterans Day I found myself pulled into a wave of sadness about losing my father at age three. A friend's loving response opened something deep inside me and reminded me that healing follows truth, not time. We explore emotional recovery, spiritual growth, and how permission can soften old wounds. Question to carry into your day: Where could you offer yourself a little more permission this week, especially around a feeling that keeps knocking on your heart asking to be let in?
