Ep. 163: Janine Kwoh — How to Offer Yourself the Freedom to Grieve

My guest this week is Janine Kwoh, who has a new book called Welcome to the Grief Club. As you’ll hear, Janine has her own experience with heartbreaking grief that became the basis for this book. This conversation is for you if you’re dealing with your own loss of someone you loved, or if you want to learn more effective ways to help someone you love who’s hurting. I know there’s so much fear around saying the wrong thing, which can get in the way of really showing up for someone. Janine and I talk about how the most important thing you can do might be to let go of the idea that it’s up to you to make it better. When we release that unrealistic expectation, we can be much more present for the other person. I know you’ll get a lot out of this discussion.
