What is grief?

Grief is the loss of hopes, dreams, and expectations.

Grief is anything we wish would be different, better, or more.

And, no one has to die for you to grieve.

Also, because there are more than 40+ losses, it’s a safe bet that you and every person you meet is or has experienced grief.

We are taught how to acquire things (or people). We’re not taught what to do when we lose them. Today’s episode is about the loss of hopes, dreams, and expectations, and how our individual beliefs play a role in how we respond to grief.

Today's episode is also about seeking the truth and the evidence of what we don’t fully understand, and how our findings can lead us to the most impactful life lessons.

Be open to receiving the message in today’s podcast and, I encourage you to explore, more deeply with self-love and compassion, whatever it brings up for you.

What is truth?

For many of us, it is what we've been told to believe to be true, without any real evidence or science to back up that truth.

After the sudden, tragic death of his daughter, Bob found his open-minded skeptical heart looking for evidence that his daughter's consciousness still existed in some form after her passing.

He was having experiences that, years before, he may have dismissed. And yet, in his grief, found himself finding comfort in that which many others often raise an eyebrow at and dismiss.

In his quest for the truth of what happens to consciousness after death, he and his late wife, Phran, founded The Forever Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that shares the truth of consciousness after death that is backed by science and research. All the while, bringing comfort to the thousands of members in their (FREE) community and retreat participants.

Listen to Bob share his perspective of what grief has taught him and how, knowing what he knows, still doesn't make the grief any easier some days since losing his wife in 2020. Bob also discusses the changes he's endured after living alone for the first time as an adult since his wife's passing.
