062. How to Cope with a Loss of Identity as we Grieve

Life With Grief Podcast

“Wife” “Mother” “Father” “Sibling” “Friend” “Cousin” “Boyfriend” “Girlfriend” “Partner” “Dog mom” or “dog dad” … the list goes on. How do you identify? What identity do you feel has changed since you’ve suffered your loss? Has it evolved? Do you still identify as whatever your “title” is? Perhaps not sure yet and trying to figure it out? Maybe figuring out what this new shift in your reality actually means for you now? So relatable, my friend. When we suffer a loss, we’re left to wonder… where does this leave us? What now? For many, sadly, they find themselves asking if they deserve these titles still. In this episode this week, we're digging into that! We'll talk about how to understand the complexities of coping with feeling a loss of identity after you’ve been through a loss, and how this affects the grieving process.
