‘Curating Grief’ With Founder of The Grief Gallery, Charlene Lam
Update: 2023-07-19
Description
On this episode of The Power of Love Show we welcome special guest, Charlene Lam.
Charlene Lam is a certified grief coach, curator, speaker, and the founder of The Grief Gallery. She helps grieving people to navigate the practical and emotional aftermath of losing a loved one. And when they’re ready, to transform their pain, loss and grief into something beautiful so they can move forward with living their own fullest lives.
With degrees in mass communication and design, and over a decade of experience as a content strategist for creative brands, she turned her story-finding instincts and narrative crafting skills to grief work after the sudden death of her mother in 2013.
She speaks about the power of art, creativity, storytelling and narrative development for healthy grieving and post-traumatic growth, and shares her accessible and inspiring Curating Grief framework for processing grief with grit and grace.
She helps busy professionals, entrepreneurs and overburdened grieving people to navigate the practical and emotional aftermath of losing a loved one so they can emerge with their health, livelihoods and relationships intact.
As curator of The Grief Gallery, she presents exhibitions and events exploring death and grief with particular focus on the belongings of loved ones lost during international design events and festivals, including NYCxDESIGN, DesignTO (Toronto) and the London Design Festival.
She’s the author of the forthcoming book Curating Grief: A Creative Guide to Choosing What to Keep After a Loved One Dies.
A proud New Yorker (like her mother!), she currently splits her time between NYC and Lisbon, and travels frequently for work and pleasure.
