Grieving the Death of Your Partner

Welcome to the When Grief Comes Home podcast. We're glad you're here.

With personal grief stories and professional guidance, we offer parents practical tips for supporting their child who is grieving while caring for their own grief. Losing your spouse or partner changes everything. In this episode, Brad, Colleen, and Erin illuminate the often-overlooked changes that come with such a profound loss. The loss of a spouse or partner reshapes all aspects of daily life. Today we discuss the disorienting experience of adjusting after someone who lived with you side by side is no longer there. We explain how guilt is a natural companion in the grieving process and how it affects both adults and children. We explore how to acclimate with new responsibilities and routines. We offer strategies for what can help with the physicality of grief and how these feelings impact your body.We offer insights and resources on how to support your child after the death of their parent with ideas on how to explain death to your child. Please subscribe to the When Grief Comes Home podcast and leave us a review.
