Grief with Linda Nolan

A very insightful discussion about Linda’s journey of grief. We have lost a few loved ones and how my family and I have dealt with our loss has been different from each other. She was so honest which is so helpful to others going through it.

Love Coleen but,really?

Taking about how people have coped with grief is one thing( if I helps others) My opinion -is you have no choice BUT to cope when you lose your loved one! Anyways…... to be discussing your own funeral? No! That’s a private thing to share with your family if you should so choose. I listened to a bit of this pod but ,MY GOODNESS …If you are feeling a bit low…. steer WELL clear of this!!! I won’t be returning to this.
