How to Regain Work Capacity When Experiencing Traumatic Grief

In this first micro module in the series on traumatic grief and regaining work capacity, Dr. Shalini Jebasingh explains how traumatic grief activates two distinct biological systems—trauma and grief—simultaneously, how you bond, and why grief feels so overwhelming. In the following modules, she will address how you can regain your leadership and work capacity. This video podcast is designed for C-suite leaders, professionals, business owners, and anyone in the workplace who needs to continue functioning at work while navigating grief, trauma, or personal upheaval. What is traumatic grief? Traumatic grief is the death of someone you love, where you also experienced trauma because of the circumstances of their death. Traumatic grief activates both grief and trauma systems simultaneously. What is the biology of bonding? Bonding is regulated by dopamine, oxytocin, and vasopressin. Dopamine drives connection and pursuit, oxytocin builds trust and emotional bonding, and vasopressin supports protection and long-term attachment. How does traumatic grief affect work capacity? Traumatic grief impairs cognitive function, decision-making, planning, and emotional regulation due to simultaneous activation of stress and attachment systems. Errata: In this video, I collectively refer to dopamine, oxytocin, and vasopressin as “hormones.” However, dopamine is a neurotransmitter, while oxytocin and vasopressin are neuropeptides that function as hormones in the body.

You will learn how complex grief differs from conventional grief, why it can profoundly affect leaders and professionals, and five practical strategies to regain clarity, resilience, and work capacity, including the proprietary SCRIBE framework developed by Eirene Group.
