Grief and loss aren’t just about someone dying. Sometimes you’ll experience these feelings due to something out of your control like being fired or someone breaking up with you. Other times, you’ll experience these feelings even when you were the one in control.

Today I’m going to teach you how to know if you’re stuck in a grief process (and don’t even realize it), my different take on those famous stages of grief and my top tips for coping whether you’ve been betrayed, lost a job, had someone die or moved to a new home!
