In this episode, we delve into the profound grief that often accompanies midlife transitions. With insights from Devori Nussbaum, a Psychotherapist and trauma therapist, we explore the three essential steps of grieving: Awareness, Clarity about the Circle of Choice, and Processing Grief.

Discover practical strategies and body-mind approaches, such as mindfulness and somatic practices, to navigate these changes. We also discuss the emotional challenges of navigating parent-child boundaries and how personal growth impacts future generations.

Tune in for heartfelt strategies to manage and heal from midlife grief, and find peace in the process.
