EP 12: How to Grieve with Intuition & Deal with Identity Loss & Career Transitions
Description
In this episode, Gaby dives deep with Gloria Eid about:
- exploring who she is without her work
- developing self-trust
- how she supported herself through transitions (incl. career change)
- losing her father while away from home
- grieving while holding space for others in her own work
- developing presence with the uncomfortable
- loss of identity
- honouring endings
...plus advice on how you can start being more present while grieving.
Gloria is a writer, poet, leadership coach, and grief movement guide who helps people navigate their growth and transitions, access their creative abilities, and become who they need to be to carry out their unique roles in life and career.
In 2016, she quit her career track with no set plan, taking a 10-month career pause that ultimately propelled her into the creative life and work she has today.
Through her own experiences with grief and death, her writing and coaching often explores how to find peace in life’s mysteries, carry onward in the aftermath of loss, and live in the nuance of keeping it together when things have fallen apart. She is a featured poet on an upcoming documentary called Heal Through Poetry, and her episode shares intimately about the death of her dad in 2019 and the ensuing experiences and perspectives she’s been left with while grieving and healing.
