Ep. 499: Grieving our Invisible Losses with Christina Rasmussen

Grief seems to have been a recurring theme in our lives, but we know now that it’s not just us—everyone is grieving. Grief isn’t always caused by big tragedies and devastating events. It can happen in the every day moments of rejection and misunderstanding, it can happen in the moments we feel overlooked and invisible. The world is silently grieving the versions of ourselves we’ve lost to the everyday pains in life. Today we brought back one of our favorite guests, Christina Rasmussen, an expert on grief, to talk about invisible loss and how we can work through our grief and get back to that essential, thriving self who is excited to wake up and change the world every day.Read Invisible Loss, out now!Invisiblelossbook.comConnect with Christina:@christinarasmussen7Getting stuck in survival mode after loss [2:19]The loss of original self [7:49]Making choices out of fear, rather than genuine want [12:23]The pain of any rejection is real [16:30]The Survivor, the Witness, and the Thriver [18:48]Finding a way to be vulnerable again [23:00]An emotional cleanse [28:00]Looking for the patterns in our lives [42:19]The first step needs to be easy to take [45:00]Hurt people hurt people [46:35]The pain of public rejection [49:38]Trust that what you have to say is important [57:23]Life re-entry [59:44]It doesn’t have to be hard all the time [1:03:23]Get 20% off your Magic Mind order using code THEBESTLIFE20magicmind.com/THEBESTLIFE20Get a personalized playlist for all your fav podcast topics!thebestlifepodcast.com/playlist Don’t forget to leave us a review and subscribe so you never have to miss an episode!
