Why You Feel So Lost Right Now (And How to Finally Heal)
Grief doesn’t only happen when someone dies. We can grieve a divorce, a changing body, an aging parent, a career, a relationship or even the person we used to be.
In this episode of The Tamsen Show, Tamsen Fadal sits down with grief therapist and expert Meghan Riordan Jarvis to unpack what grief actually does to the body, why the five stages of grief don’t tell the whole story, and how to process loss instead of simply pushing through it.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why grief can show up after divorce, career changes, aging and other non-death losses
- How grief can affect sleep, brain fog, anxiety, mood and the body
- The truth about the five stages of grief
