In today’s conversation Dani gets to know Carrie Lewman, an everyday woman with a huge story. Carrie’s experiences in navigating the loss + grief of her father along with the grief of the life she thought she was going to live has deeply informed the work she now is doing in the world today.

She shares candidly about the not so healthy ways she was trying to cope with the sadness of not only losing her father but the abandonment she experienced from her mother who left when she was only 11 years old. She talks about the importance of feeling ALL of your feelings regardless of how scary they are. She talks about how she so clearly was living her life almost in this kind of autopilot way of living from her own traumatic childhood experiences, like we all do until we gain greater awareness. She also touched on all of the different ways in which we grieve and how grief isn’t strictly linked to losing someone who dies but we can grieve over all sorts of things and people and experiences.
