EP 7: Learning to Live with Loss - Grief, Healing, and the Courage to Feel
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Crown of Sage, grief therapist and death doula Gris Alves joins us for an intimate and powerful conversation about loss, love, and the courage to feel deeply.
Gris shares her own healing journey, from music and recovery to guiding others through grief and end-of-life care. Together, we explore:
- How grief shows up in our everyday lives, not just after death
- The importance of creating “grief practices” to release pain instead of bottling it up
- How curiosity, compassion, and embodiment can transform loss into tenderness
- The role of ceremony, mindfulness, and community in the healing process
- What it means to integrate deep emotional experiences into everyday living
This conversation is a reminder that grief isn’t something to escape, it’s something to practice, to honor, and to move through with gentleness and presence.
