How to be a friend to Sadness
Counsellor Matthew Flynn speaks about grief not as a fixed process, but something deeply personal that shifts and changes over time.
Drawing from years of supporting people through loss, Matt reflects on the ways grief can alter behavior, overwhelm everyday thinking, and leave people feeling disconnected from themselves in ways they may not immediately understand.
At the centre of the conversation is patience, learning to accept grief on the terms it presents itself, rather than forcing it into timelines, expectations, or neat stages of recovery.
