Episode #127 - How Grief Evolves Through Life’s Seasons

In this deeply personal episode of the Cultivate Calmness Podcast, Kaela explores one of the most common questions surrounding loss: Does grief ever go away? Drawing from her own experience of losing her mother at a young age and living with that grief for over three decades, she shares an honest and compassionate perspective on how grief evolves over time. Through powerful metaphors—like a bookshelf, glitter, and scars—Kaela explains how grief doesn’t disappear, but instead becomes integrated into our lives. She discusses how grief can resurface during life transitions, how it looks different across ages and experiences, and how healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means learning to live fully while carrying what was lost.
