David Kessler: Finding Meaning
Episode 158
Tuesday, 10 December, 2024
I had such a great discussion with David Kessler for this episode. David is one of the world’s foremost experts on grief and loss. He’s also had two very personal losses: the death of his mother when he was just 13, and the death of his younger son when his son was 21. David has just come out with a brand new workbook, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief Workbook. In our discussion, he shares so much of his wisdom from this workbook, from his personal experiences as a griever, and from his lifetime of work as a grief professional. Plus: He shares how his first impressions about funerals came from watching Gilligan’s Island as a child. I know you’ll find David’s insights worthwhile, and his workbook invaluable.
