Recast - Grieving During the Holidays (feat. Lanta Carroll)

This week, we're re-airing a conversation we had with therapist and pastor Lanta Carroll last year about grief during the holiday season. We know that so many of us are carrying grief in a myriad of ways this year, and hope this conversation can be helpful in some small way. In the intro, Robert and Holly talk about whether or not seasonal decorations are a thing in their houses.   Things we mention in this episode/other resources:- see the original show notes below for links related to the conversation with Lanta- Holly mentions the work of epidemiologist Dr. Emily Smith. Here's a recent conversation with her: "Church and COVID"- find Holly's recent blog posts on burnout, self-care, and more here. ---------Original Show Notes--------- It’s the holiday season, which can be both joyful & hard.
