014. Healing Through Travel: How Exploration Can Help Us Grieve and Transform
02/06/25 • 40 min
We have a really special episode of Taste Toast Travel for you today! For those who don’t know, Tara is also a Certified Grief and Transformational Life Coach and got into this work after losing her parents to cancer several years ago within six months of each other.
She also hosts another podcast called Life With Grief (available wherever you get your podcasts!). That podcast is all about helping fellow grievers navigate grief, loss, and the complexities of life after we experience these difficult situations. The goal of that pod is to help grievers move through it all and ultimately live a more beautiful, fulfilling, meaningful life. For Tara especially, that’s really where the joys of food, drink and travel come into play.
So, she was inspired to marry the topics of grief and travel on the podcast today, because SO many of us have or will experience loss in our life. But travel and exploration can be so important and so healing on this journey, too.
We hope you love this episode, and check out the Life With Grief Podcast if you feel so inclined! Or, maybe you know someone who has experienced grief and loss who could benefit from this episode or that podcast, too.
