    S2 Ep 6 - Difficult Conversations Series - Grief Part 1

    S2 Ep 6  - Difficult Conversations Series - Grief Part 1  A conversation with someone about the loss of a loved one, how it can affects a person (mentally and physically) and how one can heal.  Episode Notes: If you listen to the podcast, you may already know that I view the platform as an extension of my private voice studio. In a lesson I like to focus primarily on the voice but every now and then other topics come up (for example- other forms of technique, mental health, artist development) that can affect the way we make sound but there is either just not enough time to chat about these things or sometimes it's just not the appropriate setting....so voilà, podcast!  This particular episode is the beginning of a series I'm calling difficult conversations. It will focus on emotions that affect our inner and outer voice. In this episode I chat with someone about their loss of a loved one and how it has affected them. My guest takes us through what she went though and in doing so shows us her perspective on what someone grieving needs. She also inspires us to continue showering those closest to our hearts with love.  Resources: Hospice of Lake Cumberland: https://hospicelc.org/bereavement-support/ List of 6 Grief Support Hotlines (National and 24 Hour) Updated 1/12/2022: https://www.joincake.com/blog/grief-support-hotline/ 21 Best Books on Grief for 2022: https://www.choosingtherapy.com/grief-books/ Get a taste of the MVS Patreon After Show by visiting pateron.com/mcneilvoicestudio.
