155: Losing a grandchild is a double whammy of grief with Coach Teresa
09/14/23 • 26 min
Coach Teresa talks about navigating grief as a grandparent. When your child loses a child, you are grieving both your grandchild and you are grieving for your child. Instead of spoiling a grandchild, you have now become the ultimate caregiver for your family and possibly your child's friends.
Inside this episode you will hear about:
- The most important thing to always remember is everyone grieves differently.
- Loss cannot be "fixed".
- Take your child's lead when talking about the loss.
- Remember to take care of your own grief and seek support.
"You are 100% in control of talking about your grief and 0% of controlling how people respond to it. People do not want to get your sadness all over them" -- Teresa Reiniger
