S4 E10 Holding Space for Grief with Kristina Talbot

Mourning Glory Grief Podcast

Shownotes Sometimes during the hustle and bustle of the initial shock of our loss and sorrow, we may find ourselves working on auto-pilot just to survive. But then, after all of the busyness that can come after loss, we can easily find ourselves continuing to move along without realizing we haven’t processed the loss we’ve experienced. While we know that we all process grief differently, when it does finally hit, it can be overwhelming. Who can we turn to for support and what are some of the different ways seeking professional help can assist us in processing our grief? Our Guest Kristina Talbot is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is the owner and founder of ARISE Mental Health Consulting Services.  Having suffered the loss of multiple pregnancies and the loss of her mother from Alzheimer's, Kristina's work as a mental health provider has been infused with a deeper awareness of the journey of grief and the many ways in which we experience loss in unique ways.  Kristina is a contributing writer for Catholicmom.com and has four children here with her husband in Florida.  Links from the show * Arise Oh Lord (song Kristina mentioned) * Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) * Anticipatory grief * Litany of Trust * Divine Mercy Chaplet Scripture * Deuteronomy 6:5 Prayer for the faithful departed Kristina’s mom, Pat Morres Journaling Questions * What stood out to you from this episode? * How have you made space for yourself to grieve? * How has your grief changed you? * What is your mourning glory?
