The Confidence Clinic Season 1, Episode 5: Jacqui Joseph

We've all experienced it: the loss of a loved one tugs at our heartstrings. Though the sudden surge of responsibilities that follow their passing, such as organising the funeral, handling documentation, moving belongings, and settling affairs, may keep the grief at bay for a while, it inevitably resurfaces. We're left to deal with it. If you've wondered how to truly bounce back from that experience and find purpose in life after a loved one's passing, tune in to this episode. 

You'll hear from Jacqui Joseph, TV presenter, producer, and "Eco Interior Designer," who shares her experience of finding life after the loss of her husband and how she navigated the pain by immersing herself in work and making everyone proud with her accomplishments. As Jacqui narrates her journey through loss, pain, and hurt, you'll learn to see grief from a different perspective. This episode is about validation of your pain. If you've felt lonely after the loss despite having everyone around, Jacqui will show you that grief is a personal journey. If you've struggled to acknowledge your hurt because of responsibility, Jacqui's story will remind you that it's okay. 

The death of a loved one can be overwhelming, and dealing with paperwork and accounts can be confusing, so give yourself time to heal. Sometime later, when you look back at how far you've come since the devastating event, you'll gain at least a small amount of confidence in yourself. Today, join in as a friend and listen to Jacqui's re-emergence in life through her show "Money for Nothing" and see how she processed her grief and focused on her purpose, even collaborating with Marie Curie on a Q&A session with her. She also talks about her passion and dedication to charity and social service and how she's found healing by helping others heal.
