Who Are You After Losing Someone Central to Your Life

from The Happya Life with Clare Deacon

🪷If something in this spoke to you, I’d love to hear, message me.Grief is talked about in terms of sadness and loss and stages. What almost never gets discussed is what it does to your sense of who you are.When you lose someone central to your life, you do not just lose them. You lose the version of yourself that existed in relationship to them. Who you were as a daughter, a partner, a friend. How your days were organised. What gave your identity its shape.And when that is gone, the question underneath the grief, who am I now, does not always get asked. Which is why so many women come through bereavement and still feel like they do not quite fit their own lives, even when the sharpest grief has softened.In this episode, Clare explores the identity dimension of bereavement that nobody talks about. Gently, without rushing. Because this is not easy territory, and it deserves real attention.This is for you if you have been feeling unfamiliar to yourself in grief, and you are not sure whether that is normal, or how long it is supposed to last.A Cuppa and Chat is a free conversation to find out whether working with Clare is the right fit. happyacoach.com/chat.
