How Relationships Change After Traumatic Loss

from Grief Refuge Hosted by Reid Peterson | Grief Refuge

For many, there's a moment in grief when you realize the experience is much bigger than you. You realize grief can't be bottled up, avoided, or even controlled. You realize that grief is better served by befriending it, giving it space to better understand, and expressing it by sharing it with other people who won't judge you for feeling the way you feel. And then there's trauma… Trauma breaks trust. It breaks trust with people, the world, nature, and sometimes even a higher power. On today's Grief Refuge podcast, author and speaker Bill Jenkins shares what he's come to know about traumatic loss and how it changes relationships. Bill offers a ton of insight for how to work through a traumatic loss while deeply grieving. Bill also shares his personal experience regarding the tragic and traumatic loss of his son, William. Deep gratitude and special thanks to Bill for sharing his knowledge and personal experience.
