What Nobody Tells You About Grief and Heartbreak And What It's Doing to Your Nervous System

Everyone tells you to move on.Stay busy. Stay productive. Get distracted.Nobody tells you that grief is not proof something went wrong.Nobody tells you that what feels like heartbreak is your nervous system going through actual physiological withdrawal — real, not metaphorical.And nobody tells you that the love you are grieving was never outside of you.It was always yours.In this raw and personal episode — recorded outside in her backyard from the middle of an experience, not the other side of it — Monica Bravo shares what she is learning inside grief right now.
