Irad Eichler: Sharing Grief in the Time of COVID

What this episode covers

Welcome to another episode of The Glam Reaper. This time, Jennifer Muldowney is joined by Irad Eichler, founder of "Circles", an online platform that creates Circles of support for people experiencing life crises. Their main topic? Grief. As we are all aware, thanks to the last 2 years with COVID, some of us experienced grief from a loss of a loved one due to COVID-19 and some were separated for a very long time because of lockdowns and travel bans. The Circles platform was established to help people who are facing grief with a loss of a loved one cope with loneliness. But it goes beyond that. They also work with people suffering with anxiety, depression, dealing with chronic diseases, and so forth. This is done through connecting people with the same life issues on their platform in sessions that are led by professional facilitators. Clients who sign up can then start to build meaningful connections and establish relationships with kindred spirits. Stream this episode to learn more about how Circles works and to hear a beautiful story of how the platform brought a group together in real life. Stay tuned and get connected! *This episode was recorded at Christmas 2020, so apologies for the time difference.
