- Personal Journals
How do you help a friend when they are grieving? Grief and loss are parts of life that we don’t really like to talk about, and we all experience it at some point in our lives. Loss of a relationship, job, health, pet, or just about anything meaningful to a person can mean a need for love and support – leaning in. Heidi Dunstan, a widow, and Certified Grief Educator, shares her insights into how to help others grieve and ways to be a support in the darkness of grief. She shares the story of losing her beloved partner, Mike, at a time when he was preparing a special birthday celebration for her 40th birthday. In a candid conversation, Heidi shares what inspired her to teach others how to be present for the grieving in small and meaningful ways.
