In today’s conversation, we are joined by author, co-founder of Modern Loss, and all-around “grief veteran”, Rebecca Soffer. As witty as she is wise, she knows a thing or two about grief – by the time she was 34, both of Rebecca’s parents had died a few years apart. We talk about how grief is a sneaky b*tch, and to manage the fear and anxiety that can manifest when it creeps up on you, especially when multiple people die within a short space of time. 

We also cover:

• Cumulative grief 
• How to cope with feeling guilty if you miss one person more than another at times
• The mind-body connection and trauma healing
• The physical exhaustion of grief
• How to take care of yourself in grief
• Coping with digital grief triggers
• Ways to continue the bond

We hope you enjoy this honest and funny conversation as much as we did.
