Summary
Krista St-Germain is a grief expert, Master Certified Life Coach, widow, mom and host of The Widowed Mom Podcast. When her husband was killed by a drunk driver in 2016, Krista’s life was completely and unexpectedly flipped upside down. She now helps fellow widows to not just survive, but thrive in the aftermath of losing your spouse.
Key Takeaways:
- Common misconceptions about grief and the healing process (Five Stages of Grief)
- Grief can stem from any perceived loss and lead to secondary losses, akin to "death by a thousand paper cuts."
- Somatic techniques such as tapping and yoga are transformative in releasing grief stored in the body
- Post-traumatic growth shows how even through intense hardship, we can emerge not just intact - but immeasurably stronger
