Episode 18 Show Notes

I want to talk about surviving the holidays I remember my first year after Aria died. I looked around and everyone was so excited for the Christmas season. There is such a feeling of joy, excitement and happiness. When you are grieving, it seems like all that excitement is too much to handle. And I longed for my old self who could laugh and not have a care during the holiday season.

-I want to share my first experience with Thanksgiving the first year after Aria died.

-The best way I can think of is to keep communication lines open.

-One year might be awful and you realize that this is what you need, so then next year you change it.

Today’s topic is surrounding grief and the common saying there is no wrong way to grieve. Everyone says that over and over. And I'd like to say that we all get to choose how we want to grieve. We all get to choose what methods and ways we use to cope, but there are definitely healthy and unhealthy ways to grieve.

Humans have a unique ability to time travel in our minds. We revisit the past so we can learn from it. We try to predict the future so that we can be prepared. But sometimes, when we look into the future, we see too much uncertainty, and the result is a truckload of worry and anxiety. "What if it rains during the party? What if the food doesn't turn out? What if nobody shows up? What if nobody has fun? What if none of these people are really my friends?" Ed and Renee are master what-iffers, and all that experience has left them with a lot of tools for managing what-ifs, and focusing on what really matters.
