Gina Moffa wants us to talk about grief. In this episode, we deep-dive into the world of healing and human connection, and trauma’s often-overlooked companion: grief. 

Gina Moffa, LCSW, MA, is a licensed psychotherapist, mental health educator, and media consultant in New York City. After a succession of professional and personal losses, including her mother, Gina became inexplicably sick only to discover the profound physical toll her own grief was taking on her body. This deepened her goal to understand and normalize talking about death, grief, and the experience of loss. 

Gina has dedicated her career to helping thousands navigate trauma and grief, including working with Holocaust survivors and serving as Clinical Director at the Addiction Institute of New York at Mt. Sinai-St. Luke’s Hospital Campus. She is also the author of "Moving On Doesn't Mean Letting Go: A Modern Guide to Navigating Loss,” which seeks to reframe the life-long journey of processing loss and death.  

In this conversation, we discuss a wide range of topics, including:

• Our society’s fear of loss and death.

  
  



• Grieving authentically.

  
  

• The powerful physical impact of grief on our bodies.

  
  



• Is romantic heartbreak as painful as the death of a loved one?

  
  



• Why the grief experience may never end.

  
  



• Grief in the workplace – a compassionate revamping is necessary. 

  
  



• Grief’s various forms, from lost loved ones and pets to divorce, friendships and even addictive substances – each teaching us to navigate its unique and poignant path.

  
  



• Zac’s unexpected grief journey with ‘The Bachelorette.’ 

  
  



• Gina's upcoming book, "That Bitch," which explores themes of loss in friendships, navigating grief, and cultivating greater compassion.

  
  

Please join in and listen to this fascinating conversation about the uncomfortable yet profoundly universal experience of grief.
