Description

Have you ever felt like grief should have an expiration date?
In this heartfelt conversation with grief educator and TEDx coach Teri Kingston, we explore the messy, tender, and very human journey of loss. From anticipatory grief to sudden loss, Teri opens up about her own story and shares practical insights on how to support yourself and others without falling into the trap of “shoulding.” Together, we talk about what to say (and not say), why workplaces need grief literacy, and how to find purpose in the middle of pain.

You might want to listen if:

  • You have ever wondered why you still miss someone years later and feel like you “should” be over it
  • You are supporting a loved one who is grieving and do not know what to say
  • You have experienced anticipatory grief while watching someone you love decline
  • You have felt invisible or unsupported in the workplace while grieving
  • You want to know when your story is ready to be shared and when it still needs a softer container
