Healing Through the Vibration of Grace with Gina Breedlove
What does the word ‘grace’ really mean? Jenn and Sound Healer and Grief Doula Gina Breedlove both work to bring more grace into the world and share what they think it truly means while painting a picture of what their souls believe is possible for humanity. In a time of profound collective grief around the world, Gina talks about what it looks like to make grief ‘sexy’ again, shares a simple practice to help your body release what it is holding onto, and encourages us to embrace grieving as something we have to do for our body as much as drinking water. She also gifts us with a bit of her sound healing magic to help you connect and unwind.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of Caregiving with Sarah Dutro Cormier
To celebrate the two-year anniversary of the podcast and to commemorate the 11-year anniversary of her dad’s passing, Jenn sits down with an incredibly special guest to share the flip side of her father’s cancer journey. Her mother, Sarah Dutro Cormier, shares the challenges, humor, and tedium behind caring for her husband and Jenn’s dad Gil as he faced stage 4 prostate cancer. Jenn has shared extensively about the healing journey that Gil went through in the last years of his life that she got to be a part of, and this episode adds another layer to the tale. Sarah tells of “the down and dirty work” that comes with caregivers and shares her advice to those out there providing full-time care.
Thank you to each and every one of our listeners who has supported this podcast over the past two years. It is an honor to share these stories and promote greater and more holistic dialogue around death, dying, and grief.

Customer Reviews
Highly recommend!
I’m really enjoying this beautifully facilitated podcast. So much wisdom and compassion comes through the personal storytelling, sharing of expertise, and guided meditation or other healthy practices. The episodes shed light on how to move through grief and inspire a lot joy at the same time!
Inspiring
These are such important conversations that so many of us fail to have and/or wish we have had when it’s too late. I love considering conscious dying for myself and family members, and all the decisions we can be making ahead of time. Jenn is the embodiment of grace and compassion. This show is so needed!
Perfect timing
I recently connected with Jen and started listening to her podcasts before a 17 hour road trip and was able to listen to so many at one time. These podcasts have been empowering, encouraging, motivating and inspiring. I am grieving the loss of so many close family members, as well as other things, and am finally getting the tools necessary to really process these losses. Processing means true healing which leads to me truly living. Thank you Jen Cormier and all the guest speakers who are helping peel back my layers to a new discovery. I’m looking forward to my walk now.
