Grief isn’t just an emotion, it’s energy that lives in the body until we face it.
I sit down with Meghan Jarvis, a trauma therapist and grief mentor who’s helped countless people find their way through loss. Meghan shares her own story of heartbreak, how grief and trauma intertwine, and the six simple practices she teaches to move that heavy energy through the body and back toward healing. We also talk about midlife transitions, why so many of us feel stuck, and how community can bring us back to life.
👉 Tune in for a real, hopeful conversation about what it truly means to grieve, heal, and grow.
