Today's guest, Karla Helbert, has a breadth of knowledge when it comes to understanding and coping with loss. She's a licensed professional counselor, Compassionate Bereavement Care provider, certified yoga instructor, an award-winning author... the list goes on.But, she has her own experience with grief, too. Her life completely changed when her first born child died of a brain tumor in 2006. Her specialty now is working with those affected by trauma and traumatic death.She focuses on having compassion for the self in grief, and allowing feelings rather than judging our experiences. Learning to cultivate a "strong back”, as she calls it, and being able to grow into your personal truth independent of what others' say you "should" do. This is a major skill that helps us as we grow and learn through the process of living with grief, and we talk about that a lot in both part 1 and 2 of this episode with Karla.This mindset resonated with me so deeply as it’s very aligned with my philosophy on grief as well. Remember, part 2 of this conversation is coming next week!
