Description

Grief impacts so much of our life- including the way our brain functions.  Today, Lori and Trish talk about the changes in executive functioning they have experienced, its impact on their work, and how they are adapting and using tools to continue building the lives they want with the flux in executive functioning.

Are you or your loved ones experiencing changes in 

  • flexible thinking
  • working memory
  • self-monitoring
  • planning and prioritizing
  • task initiation
  • organization
  • impulse control
  • emotional control

Consider your energy levels and how your mind and body are changing because of trauma/loss. 

Talking through the effects of grief on our lives and making intentional choices to move forward every day has given both co-hosts a sense of calm and peace - and increased their compassion for self.
