06- When People Don't Show Up After Loss

07- Sitting Beside Grief vs. Being Consumed by It

Grief can feel all-consuming. Like being caught in waves you can’t escape. But what if healing isn’t about fighting your grief… and instead about learning how to sit beside it? In this episode, I explore the difference between being consumed by grief and learning how to walk alongside it. This conversation is not for fresh grief, where overwhelm is natural. It’s for those who feel lost, stuck, or unsure how to soothe the pain even as time has passed. We talk about grief as love that remains, why pushing it away often makes it louder, and how learning to sit with grief, without trying to fix it, can gently shift your healing Let's Connect Instagram⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/echoesofalignment444/] ⁠Echoes of Alignment Podcast Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/eoapodcast/] ⁠Facebook⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/echoesofalignment/] ⁠Youtube⁠⁠ [https://www.youtube.com/@echoesofalignment] Offerings ⁠⁠Free Newsletter⁠⁠ [https://lizvolpe.us9.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=812131db20758f068eefafa34&id=31ff438d37] Free Grief 101 Course [https://www.skool.com/echoes-of-alignment-1431/about?ref=ad15a2776dc847ac87e5143c6ab0296e] Contact Liz Email-Liz@lizvolpe.com Website:⁠⁠⁠Lizvolpe.com⁠⁠ [https://www.lizvolpe.com] Intro/Outro music- "Take Your Pick" By Aaron Lieberman

06- When People Don't Show Up After Loss

Have you ever needed someone after loss and they weren’t there? In this episode, I talk about the anger, hurt, and disappointment that can arise when the people you expected to support you disappear. We explore why this happens, why your feelings are valid, and how to begin showing up for yourself with compassion. You’ll be guided through reflection and gentle self-coaching, and reminded that support often comes from those who truly understand, other grievers.

05- When You No Longer Recognize Yourself After Loss

Have you ever felt like a stranger to yourself after loss? In this episode, we explore a side of grief that often goes unspoken, the grief of losing who you were. Beyond the physical loss, grief can shift your identity, your beliefs, and the way you see yourself and the world. And sometimes, that change can feel confusing, scary, and deeply unsettling. I share why wanting to “go back” to who you used to be often keeps us stuck, how grief can quietly become an identity, and why survival behaviors like numbness, anger, and isolation aren’t who you are...they’re how you learned to cope. If you’re feeling lost or disconnected from yourself after loss, this episode is an invitation to meet this version of you with compassion, curiosity, and grace. Grief is part of you, but it’s not all you are.

04- Closing Chapter 36: a birthday reflection

In this special birthday episode, I hit record on my actual birthday and simply started reflecting. No outline, no script, just the freedom to speak from my heart. Year 36 was probably one of the most growth filled years of my life. In this episode, I reflect on what this past year has taught me, the ways I’ve grown, and the lessons that shaped me. I also share some of my intentions as I step into year 37 and this next chapter of my life. This is an unfiltered, real-time reflection....raw, honest, and exactly where I am right now.

03- The Missing Step In Your Healing Journey

In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most important, and most overlooked, parts of the healing journey: actually living your life again. For years, I hid away in “hermit mode,” doing all the inner work, waiting to feel “ready,” waiting to feel “healed,” waiting for the moment I could finally step into the world as a new version of myself. But this year, everything shifted. I realized life wasn’t waiting for me… and healing wasn’t something I needed to finish before living again. This episode is an honest look at what hiding looked like, what brought me back to life, the fears that surfaced, and the surprising growth that only happens when you start engaging with the world again. If you’ve been waiting for permission to live, this might be the message you needed.
