Frame of Reference

On this episode I got to talking about something I like to call my frame of reference. This idea was first introduced to me from my late therapist Dr. Bubrick when we talk about the college admissions process. Frame of reference in grief is a mindset, it is a mindset that challenges us to talk about how sad something really is, in terms of other sad things that can happen in our lifetime. Many times kids who have lost a parent or sibling at a young age have a frame of reference that allows them to see events such as a bad grade or college rejection as not sad; this comes from their loss at a young age that has manipulated their frame of reference to see the world from a "happier" POV. I hope you all enjoy!
