Grief isn’t just something you “get over”—it can transform your life, your identity, and your relationships in ways you never imagined. In this powerful episode, we dive into the real journey of healing after loss with expert grief and trauma counselor Amelia Bradaric. Listen as Amelia shares how adventuring through loss—literally and emotionally—helped her move from numbness and dissociation to authentic presence and growth.

Host Kathy Washburn and Amelia unpack what emotional regulation really means, why dissociation might be necessary at first, and how grief can create ripple effects of “secondary losses” from identity to friendships to homes. Together, they explore practical, accessible strategies for navigating emotional turmoil—including grounding in the senses, embracing nature, and learning to honor both heaviness and small joys as you pendulate between pain and possibility.

Whether you’re grieving, supporting someone through loss, or simply facing a time of deep personal change, this episode offers validation, hope, and concrete tools for building resilience. Discover why seeking help is an act of self-investment, how to support others without trying to fix them, and how to find your own adventure in healing—even when the landscape is nothing like you expected.
