Sometimes There's Side Eye - Episode 25 Grieving Your Pet
In this episode we are talking about grief and are honored to have Dr. Jenn Pereira, who is a licensed professional counselor joining us. It will come as no surprise that we are going to issue a tissue warning for this episode, but we promise there is also a lot of laughter as well. We talk about pet loss being a form of disenfranchised grief and how that can affect our grieving process. Jenn gives us so many good nuggets of wisdom like how to include children in the grief process, how to best show up for friends and family who are going through a loss, how to navigate unexpected sadness along the journey, what things we can do for our own grief, and how to work through mixed emotions when grieving. Additionally, we provide some resources we feel are useful to help work through the grief process after the loss of a pet. We believe this episode will be beneficial and encouraging to anyone who has lost a pet, and we hope you find some comfort as we share both laughter and tears in this episode.
