Earlier this week, we shared part one of this conversation, all about how to rediscover yourself after grief and trauma. And let me just say, this profound conversation has stuck with me ever since. So many things that Michele shared so far have come up in my dreams, in my conversations with others, and in my thoughts this week. I hope the same is true for you.

Now, if you haven’t heard part one, go back and listen to that one first. But if you’re ready to continue on, let’s pick back up here with my conversation with author Michele Neff Hernandez as she simplifies how to rediscover yourself after grief and trauma.

It’s time to simplify…

Here’s how. 

My special guest today is Michele Neff Hernandez and she’s simplifying how to rediscover yourself after grief + trauma.

We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:

• When a life-altering loss or trauma has happened, so many people just wish things would “go back to normal.” Why this is not a good idea.
• How to grieve who you used to be before this big change happened without getting stuck holding on to the past.
• What “integration” is and the role it plays when you’ve experienced loss and are on the path of rediscovering yourself.
• Why she recommends thinking of yourself as “a goldfish in a fishbowl” as a way to simplify and filter out what doesn’t help on the road to recovery.
• …and ultimately, what is needed in order to dream a new dream and (as she says) “own your phoenix.”

All this month, we’ve been focused on simplifying different aspects of our body for better understanding on how our body, mind, and spirit are inner-connected. This powerful conversation tackles it from a slightly different angle and I’m so thrilled to share it with you.

Take it slow, take deep breaths along the way, and more importantly, talk to someone about this episode. 

Just one person to help you remove some of the burden off your shoulders and slowly move forward on your path. We were never meant to tackle life alone. You’ve got me, heart wide open, running alongside you as well. Just breathe, my friend.

Q: Are you ready to rediscover yourself after grief + trauma? If yes, this one is for you.

It’s time to #DoTheThing
