Dr. Eboni Green
February 8, 2022
It has been said that grief is as individual as a fingerprint. It’s complex and it’s personal. I have found that to be true in my life and in conversation with other caregivers. How do we process our grief? How do we start to find some semblance of healing in the midst of caring for a loved one and anticipating the loss? Dr. Eboni Green is my guest today and she has firsthand experience in how deep loss can expose our need for a safe place to talk about our grief and to process our pain.
What challenges are caregivers facing right now?
What type of grief is most present when we are caring for our loved ones?
How do we hold space for others when they are sharing their grief?
How do we make protective plans when we are grieving?
What emotions should we pay attention to that are related to grief?
Why is it important for us to work through our grief?
How do we channel our emotions and grief into reflection?
Why it’s important to document this process?
How do we know we are on the journey to healing as we also work through loss and heartache- what resources are available?
