Lyndsay Soprano connects with grief and trauma specialist Denise Dielwart, who has turned her own immense pain into a source of healing for others. Denise recounts the sudden loss of her husband in 2009, a tragedy that revealed the shortcomings of traditional grief support. Through this experience, she developed her own approach—the Flow Grief Release Method—which has since empowered many to move through their grief more gently and effectively.

Together, Lyndsay and Denise broaden the conversation around grief, pointing out that it isn’t limited to the death of a loved one but can stem from any profound loss, whether that’s a relationship, career, or pet. The discussion highlights the importance of fully embracing emotions and finding the right tools to release them, allowing for transformation and growth.

Listeners are reminded that grief is a unique journey, with no set timeline or formula. This episode offers both validation and hope, emphasizing that healing is within reach for everyone.
