   How Grief Changes Over Time (and Why That Doesn’t Mean You’re Doing It Wrong)

   Krystle and Danette of Grief Unfiltered discuss how grief evolves rather than fading in a straight line, sharing how losing their father felt consuming at first and later became more wave-like, with triggers such as birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays shifting from dread to moments of honoring and celebration. Krystlel explains that time alone didn’t help until she did the work, describing a major turning point around the five-year mark after therapy helped her channel her dad’s legacy of helping others into creating Grow Through Your Grief, an online course, and a journal. They explore why later grief can be confusing, emphasizing it can resurface without meaning failure, and suggest returning to basic self-care tools—movement, hydration, journaling, balanced rest, and small habit changes—while rejecting timelines, avoiding comparisons, and allowing joy and grief to coexist. 📌 Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome to Grief Unfiltered 00:33 How Grief Evolves 01:24 Early Grief Consumes 03:49 Time Plus Work Heals 05:27 Anxiety and Firsts 07:06 From Dread to Celebration 11:44 Five Year Turning Point 15:07 Why Later Grief Confuses 20:14 Tools for Later Stages 22:32 Self Care Small Steps 26:06 Permission for Joy 28:44 No Timeline Keep Going 31:37 Closing and Resources 🌿 Get Support: 🌱 Ready to grow through your grief?

   When the World Moves On but Your Grief Doesn’t

   Krystle and Danette of Grief Unfiltered discuss a common but rarely spoken part of grief: when initial support fades while the loss still feels intense. Using their father’s death as an example, Krystle describes overwhelming check-ins and help up to the funeral, followed by an abrupt drop-off that felt isolating and created pressure to “be better.” They explore why people stop reaching out, including discomfort, fear of saying the wrong thing, and misleading impressions from social media. They encourage grievers to ask for connection and set expectations about whether they want to talk or cry, and encourage supporters to ask how someone is truly doing. They emphasize that grief has no timeline, joy and grief can coexist, and healing requires intentional work such as therapy and journaling. 📌 Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome to Grief Unfiltered 00:33 When the World Moves On 01:29 Support Fades After Funeral 06:22 Why It Gets So Lonely 08:33 Awkwardness and Social Media 13:17 Ask for Real Support 14:03 What Helped Us Cope 1 5:04 Therapy and Doing the Work 20:20 Living With Grief Long Term 22:09 Final Takeaways and Resources 🌿 Get Support: 🌱 Ready to grow through your grief?

   Grief Triggers: The Random Tuesday Gut Punch

   Krystle and Danette of Grief Unfiltered discuss unexpected grief triggers that arise outside obvious dates like anniversaries, such as songs, smells, grocery-store moments, milestones, and even feeling peaceful. They share personal examples, including Danette being triggered by a neighbor at the family farm who “loved” their dad and Krystle being hit by a Cheerios box campaign that referenced “dad” and “dog.” They explore how hearing stories about their dad can feel therapeutic on their own terms but triggering when initiated by others, and emphasize that triggers aren’t setbacks because grief isn’t linear and can persist even 10 years later. They suggest acknowledging triggers, letting emotions happen, talking to someone, journaling, therapy, and nature, and note their journal is available at growthroughyourgrief.net. 📌 Timestamps: 00:00 Welcome to Grief Unfiltered 00:33 Unexpected Grief Triggers 01:54 Farm Encounter Trigger 04:43 Grocery Aisle Gut Punch 06:42 Talking About Dad 13:39 Are Triggers Setbacks 17:56 Joy and Guilt After Loss 20:59 Tools to Handle Triggers 23:14 Journal and Closing 🌿 Get Support: 🌱 Ready to grow through your grief?
