What if the fear that follows loss isn’t a sign that something is wrong, but a reflection of how deeply you loved? After someone dies, grief often gets all the attention, while fear quietly takes over. In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau turns her attention to a part of grief almost no one names directly: fear. Drawing on her own near-death experience at age four, the loss of both of her parents, and decades of sitting with grieving clients, Susan makes the case that grief gets all the airtime, but fear is often running the show underneath it.Susan breaks the episode into three parts: why fear shows up so disproportionately loud after loss, the specific fears that surface around where our loved ones actually are, and real, practical tools for loosening fear's grip. She speaks candidly about the fear of forgetting, the fear that grief will never end, the fear that healing is a betrayal, and the deeper, harder-to-admit fear that the whole framework of an afterlife might be a comforting story we tell ourselves.Through client stories, including a woman terrified by her own laughter and a man who couldn't stop replaying his father's voicemails, Susan shows how these fears can begin to loosen when they're named, spoken out loud, and met with real tools rather than platitudes.Whether you're in the rawest part of early grief or years into carrying a loss quietly, this episode offers a grounded reminder: your loved one is not lost, not afraid, and not alone. And with the right tools, you don't have to be ruled by the fear that says otherwise either.In This Episode: [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Notable Quotes [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [Susan GrauSusan is an internationally celebrated intuitive life coach, a key opinion leader, author, medium and speaker, who discovered her ability to communicate with the spirit world after a near-death experience at age four.
