#396: Permission to Grieve with J.S. Park

In this moving episode, I welcome hospital chaplain, author, and online educator, J.S. Park. J.S. takes us on a poignant journey through the intricate layers of grief and the profound realm of emotions that accompany loss. Drawing from his experiences in a trauma center, J.S. Park shares the non-linear nature of grief, stressing the importance of embracing pain and validating all emotions that surface. Together, we explore societal norms surrounding grief, empathetic responses, and the delicate balance between fixing and sitting with discomfort. Listen in to reflect on the subject of mortality and discover a deeper understanding of grief as a natural response to loss and the compassion found in grief’s turmoil. For eight years J.S. has been an interfaith chaplain at a thousand-plus-bed hospital that is designated a Level 1 Trauma Center. His role includes grief counseling, attending every death, every trauma and Code Blue, staff care, and supporting end-of-life care. He also served for three years as a chaplain at one of the largest nonprofit charities for the homeless on the east coast. J.S. has a MDiv completed in 2010 and a BA in Psychology. He also has a sixth-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do. J.S. currently lives in Tampa, Florida with his wife, a nurse practitioner, and his three-year-old daughter, newborn son, and their adopted dog. —J.S.’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jspark3000/?hl=en —J.S.’s Book - As Long As You Need: Permission to Grieve: https://jsparkblog.com/2024/02/08/preorder-my-new-book-as-long-as-you-need-permission-to-grieve/ —J.S.’s X: https://twitter.com/jsparkblog?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor —J.S.’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNc6TwqBwxM —J.S.’s Quiz: https://www.markgroves.com/kwik-quiz If you want to dive deeper into Mark’s content, search through every episode, find specific topics we’ve covered, and ask him questions, go to his Dexa page: https://dexa.ai/markgroves Themes: Grief, Loss, J.S.
