Show Notes:
My guest today is Jessica Waite, author, friend and all around remarkable soul. Jess was my first guest on the podcast last year, sharing a captivating and vulnerable story of losing the love of her life.
A year and a half later, she’s back, brighter, clearer and wiser than ever. In today’s conversation we explore:
- discovering a more intimate relationship with yourself through loss
- trusting grief as an ally in your own evolution
- what happens inside of us when we lose something or someone we love
- parallels between addiction and grief
- the magic of avatars: what’s really going on when we love each other
- experiencing belonging through deep presence with the world
