Ep. 10: Parental Loss Unplugged (Part 3): Tips for Gen X’ers on Grieving the Loss of a Parent with Christina Lord
The cave you fear to enter has the treasure you seek. Which is the same to say that the healing or the tonic you're looking for, it's in the wound.
Welcome to the follow-up episode in the conversation with Christina Lord where Michele and Christina get into practical tips to support Gen X’ers in grieving the loss of a parent. As always, the first step is to acknowledge and validate your grief, as well as past grief that can be triggered by losing a parent. Christina discusses how important it is to be kind to yourself, tune into what your body needs, and seek support when you’re grieving. The conversation also highlights the impact of identity shifts when Gen X’ers lose a parent, like the identity as a child or caregiver. Christina and Michele also share their experiences of what can feel helpful or unhelpful for other people to do or say when you’re grieving. Christina emphasizes how breathwork and coaching training have been instrumental in her healing process and offers practical breathing exercises for managing stress and emotions. If you haven’t done so already, please go back and listen to the first part of this conversation in Episode 9.
