Inclusive Grief Solutions with Tracey Jane Redwood
Our guest today is Tracey Jane Redwood, who is a grief counsellor. Tracey Jane starts by talking about growing up with parents who were always interested in people, particularly her father. You can hear her passion when she talks about him, and when she herself talks about interacting with people – she is clearly a people person.
After leaving school, Tracey Jane went to college where she studied for a City and Guilds in community care, working with people of all ages. She continued and became a fully qualified nurse, specialising in mental health. Tracey Jane is fascinated by psychology, our moods and how our brains work. She gave up nursing, to focus on bringing up her children, setting up her own cleaning business to give her the flexibility to work around the lives of her family.
When her children had grown up, she trained to be a life coach. Around the same time, within two months of each other, both her father-in-law and her godmother died. It was then she realised how little we understand the end of life and decided she would focus on supporting people with their grief.
Tracey Jane talks about how grief affects both our bodies and brains. She describes how she set up her business, particularly how she developed her business skills. Coming from a nursing background, she had no training in business basics, but networked and met somebody who became her business coach, while she became their grief coach.
Tracey Jane explains how everyone grieves differently, and how her 6-step process supports them. Tracey Jane shares some wonderful approaches on how to help someone who has lost someone close to them around Christmas, with a range of options on how you reconnect with the person you’ve lost.
Tracey Jane talks compassionately about the issue of anticipatory grief, and how you can support a person with dementia when somebody very close to them dies. We also discuss how people generally avoid talking about somebody who is dead, but Tracey Jane’s advice is that anything you say is better than saying nothing at all.
Take a listen to Tracey Jane to get a better understanding of how we can positively support ourselves, our friends and or business colleagues who have lost someone very dear to them.
