Grief Guidance
Grief Guidance
Kristen Hinds
Grief Guidance was born out of a place of desperation. In 2020 at the age of 26, Kristen lost her father to lung cancer and then just nine short days later lost her best friend to suicide. After searching for a place for her voice to be heard and emotions to be seen she came up empty handed. This show was her solution to that search. It will allow you to hear others stories about their grief and how they are handling it. It will give listeners who are grieving a support they never knew they needed. You will hear from Kristen about her experience and interviews with others about their grief.

Motivation and Grief: How I Motivate Myself After Loss
In this weeks episode I dive into the topic of motivation. I used to be someone who was highly motivated by wanting to be better, wanting a better career, and wanting more money. I was able to accomplish tasks and goals easily. And I was able to get anything and everything done that I set my mind to. But after Brie and Dad died all of that changed. I lost all motivation to do anything. My depression took a hold of me and I couldn’t even clean my house, shower, or meet up with friends. It’s been 1 1/2ish since they passed and I can say that with time things got better. In this episode you hear my story and learn what I do now to get motivated to do the things I need to do and live a more joy filled life. Happy Healing!
