Lessons in resilience continue

The RESILIENT PEOPLE podcast is hosted by Janet Fanaki. This show profiles regular people from around the world who are admired for their resilience. They have lived through a major life challenge, found a purpose from it and now help others to be resilient too. 

This particular episode is narrated by Janet and focuses on the ways which we can help support a griever. It is in response to a post that Janet posted to Twitter where she comments on including her friend in plans after she suffered the loss of her husband. 

This episode covers:

• Comments from contributors, as grievers and also ones who have been a support to someone who has faced loss.
• Sharing tangible ways to help someone living with grief.
• Avoiding the typical one liners like, "I didn't know what to say" or "Let me know if you need anything".  

If you are widowed and have a story to share on how someone helped you move forward in your grief, please share your comments on the RESILIENT PEOPLE contact page at www.resilientpeople.ca/contact

This episode features tips and advice for single people to find joy on Valentine's Day. Typically focused on romance, attitudes are finally starting to change around it. 

We now hear more about spending the day with our 'galentines' and 'palentines' - thanks to companies like Walmart, Edible Arrangements and Jack Astors - celebrating with family and friends and even our pets. 

And there's also nothing wrong with practicing self care and locking the world out to be alone. 

This episode will share some terrific insights from other single people as well as from host Janet Fanaki who has been a widow for three years and learned ways to really enjoy Valentine's Day.
