Show notes
Christy Albright + Clarissa Sorensen Unruh share about teaching, learning, and the lessons of grief on episode 596 of the Teaching in Higher Ed podcast.
Quotes from the episode
Take two deep breaths.
None of the books that I researched on grief actually defined grief. It’s like they just assumed you knew what it was because it’s such a universal experience, but it’s not universally experienced by everybody in the same way.
Anticipatory grief is when you know something is coming and you’re already grieving that situation.
People assume that grief gets smaller, and actually we grow around it.
The big griefs in my life stay forever.
