EP 30: Experiencing Loss of a Divorce & Future Dreams | Processing Grief Through Music

In this episode, Gaby speaks with artist, songwriter and performer Eileen Francisco about: * grieving her separation * how she used music to express her grief * the role of both music and therapy in processing loss * the toll on Eileen's mental health * dissociation * the use of a persona * the perception of time while grieving * how you can use music in your grieving journey. Listen to the end to hear one of Eileen's original songs 🎼 By day, Eileen Francisco is a mum of two boys and marketing officer. At night she is an artist, songwriter and occasionally performs under Midnight – a musical alter ego formed after a year of lockdowns, heartache, and grief. As a way to process complex emotions, Eileen spent many nights in front of the piano and Midnight was born in 2021.

EP 28: Dealing with Cumulative Grief, Being Your Partner's Carer, and Daily Self-care Practices From a Widow

In this episode, Gaby speaks to educator, grief support advocate, and author Ashmeeta Madhav about: * where her grief journey began * the reality of loss * wanting to talk with your loved one again * the challenge of others not mentioning the person you've lost * being intentional with who you share your feelings with * how she approached self-care as the carer of her husband * watching her dad grieve her mother * gratitude and forgiveness * the benefit of being in the present moment * the flight or fight response * tools she used to deal with the losses * how she stays connected with her parents and husband Ashmeeta Rama Madhav is an educator, grief support advocate/expert, entrepreneur, author, and lifelong learner. She's been intimately acquainted with grief since her early twenties, having experienced miscarriage, rejection, and the loss of her parents and husband, which exposed her to a range of profound emotions. Her story is one of love, acceptance, forgiveness, gratitude, growth, and self-discovery, a narrative that resonates with those who have faced loss or are on a path of self-discovery following loss.

EP 26: Grieving a Beloved Pet & Honouring Your Pain

In this episode, Gaby speaks with Christine Passo (Certified Support and Transformation Coach) about: * her beloved dog Maya Ray * what people said to her that wasn't helpful * how to validate your grief * what to do when you're struggling * honouring your pain * brain research on what happens after a person's heart stops beating * how her surviving dog showed signs of grief Plus, she shares a writing exercise you can use to connect with your loved one. Christine Passo is a 4x Certified Support and Transformation Coach. Christine realized how trauma and unresolved pain in her own life had built up over the years as different versions of grief. She also recognized how many other women told similar stories. She is dedicated to providing support and transformation coaching to women in their 40’s and 50’s to guide them through the grief that holds them back from living lives of clarity and deeper meaning. This episode is particularly relevant if you've experienced pet loss or another loss that's diminished and not validated by society.
