Grief is best when shared-Hagir Sail
In this episode of Rise resilient, I speak with Hagir Sail about grief after she shared these beautiful words with me: Grief is best when shared.
Hagir has called Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Canada home, and has lived in Calgary CANADA since 2006. Today, she gracefully shares her perspective on grief after losing a young cousin to a violent crime, and contrasts her Sudanese ways of knowing how to grieve with the act of grieving she has witnessed here in Canada.
