It was loud. And in the midst of that noise, grief often felt overlooked. Yet, what we need most in challenging times is for someone to sit with us as we navigate loss and healing.Join me as we explore the realities of grief, finding hope in the midst of sorrow, and walking through loss with faith.These conversations are deeply personal and inspired by my books, Can You Just Sit With Me: Healthy Grieving for the Losses of Life and Black Woman Grief: A Guide to Hope and Wholeness.Get Can You Just Sit With Me: Healthy Grieving for the Losses of Life here.Get Black Woman Grief: A Guide to Hope and Wholeness here.Let’s continue the conversation:📌 Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter: @imnatashasmith📌 Join my newsletter: http://eepurl.com/bCTWML📌 Visit my website: http://www.imnatashasmith.comFollow along and join the conversation using #CanYouJustSitWithMe!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/can-you-just-sit-with-me-with-natasha-smith--4123861/support.
