Lisa shares her thoughts on what she wishes our culture would change around grief and loss, highlighting that grief impacts us emotionally, physically, cognitively, relationally, and spiritually. We dive into the messy parts of grief and human behaviors surrounding it, unpacking what we discover about ourselves and others during the grieving process. Lisa Keefauver’s wisdom stems from her decades of experience as a social worker, narrative therapist, and personal loss, including the death of her husband from brain cancer. Her advocacy extends to her work as host of the top-rated podcast Grief is a Sneaky Bitch, teaching, consulting, and speaking on grief, helping individuals and organizations become grief-smart.IN THIS EPISODE:(4:42) We don’t understand the complexity and expansiveness of grief(7:01) Why Lisa would wish for our culture around grief and loss(11:01) The messy part of grief and the human behavior towards it(16:47) We discover a lot of things when we griefCONNECT WITH LISAInstagram: @lisakeefauvermswLinkedIn: Lisa Keefauver, MSWYoutube: @lisakeefauvermswFacebook: Reimagining Grief Podcast: Grief is a Sneaky BitchYou can order her highly acclaimed book, Grief Is A Sneaky Bitch: An Uncensored Guide to Navigating Loss now. Get free grief support and resources by signing up for her Not-So-Regular Newsletter.
