A Tragic Event and the Lessons of Compassion with Jill McMahon
Episode 267
Thursday, 5 February, 2026
A Tragic Event from the Weekend with Jill McMahon In this deeply personal episode, Mathew Blades opens up about a heartbreaking event he witnessed while supporting a player on his hockey team, and how that evoked memories of his own father's passing. Joined by grief counselor and author of Bulletproof, Jill McMahon, the conversation explores the ways old trauma resurfaces when new losses occur, the importance of emotional regulation, and how empathy and anticipatory grief shape our responses to tragedy. Jill shares insights on tending to the “residue” of grief, honoring vulnerable feelings, and the power of showing up for others. Together, they offer listeners practical advice for processing tough experiences: slow down, let big feelings in, and remember that healing is an ongoing process. If you’ve ever found yourself triggered by loss or navigating the aftermath of a traumatic event, this episode offers comfort, compassion, and understanding.
