In this episode, Heidi Dunstan talks about how to deal with grief and help somebody grieving.
She talks about why grief is love and why grieving should never be done alone by someone in grief. Many times, grief is love. They have to find a new way to love their person.
Heidi reminds us that grief is not just when the funeral happens. It happens for months and years after. She reveals the power of asking, "How's today?" to someone who is in grief and wants to run away.
This episode is perfect for someone who is in grief or for someone who wants to know how to help someone who is grieving.
Heidi Dunstan is a grief advocate and educator. Her passion for helping others learn more about grief, and how to support others who are grieving came after losing her husband unexpectedly almost 3 years ago. Her experience with friends and loved ones saying the wrong thing or completely disappearing gave her firsthand experience that many people have never learned how to grieve, which often leaves grievers to grieve in isolation. Heidi believes that grief is love and it should never be done alone, so she teaches people what to say and not say to grievers, giving them the tools to lean into grief so we can all grieve with grace.

Obsessed Minisode: The One About Your Zone of Genius
June 3, 2022
•5m
What is your zone of genius? And how do we release the spiral away from our zone of genius? In this minisode, we talk about the zone of genius and how to get yourself there. It is a lot easier to spiral downwards than spiral upwards.
Ask yourself--are you a human doing or a human being? Who do you want to be? When you are confident in your zone of genius you can combat imposter syndrome and self-doubt. When you are confident in your zone of genius you are able to take a leap of faith and grow relationships with like-minded people.
We’ve all heard the story before: we need to be present in order to find our zone of genius and live a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling. But what if you’re not even sure where your zone is? That's when it can feel like an impossible task, but don't worry - We are here for you! In this new Obsessed minisode, you will get our mantra that will help you spiral upwards.

Next Episode
Queen Elizabeth's Jubilee this week inspired this story of a lesson learned about the fairytale we are all hoping to live. Inspired by the life of Princess Diana, Jules takes a trip down memories lane as we revisit the fairytale wedding of Princess Diana and Prince Charles. The story of a Princess who believed in her fairytale. The tragedy of Princess Diana is one engrained in history forever.
We all have a story within us. What is that story and where does this story come from? Do you know you are meant for more? Exploring your story and the narrative you tell yourself is a powerful way to navigate your real-life story. This is the season of weddings which spurs hope and love. This season of festivity promises a happily ever after. Yet, often the hope and promise of a fairytale can be the one only the Grimm Brothers could create.
We make exceptions for the pain we suffer. The beauty of our stories is in the devastation of our stories and how we pick ourselves up and the lessons we learn from pain.
Get obsessed with your fairytale. Get obsessed with your life. We all have the power to live a life of our powerful fairytale-- in accordance with reality?
