Resting Grief Face turns up the volume on grief, a subject that most people would rather keep on mute.
RGF is the podcast that makes talking about grief easier. Whether you’re grieving yourself or supporting someone who is, each episode offers honest stories, practical tools, and real conversations that break the silence around loss. With compassion, humor, and hope, we help you understand grief, feel less alone, and find simple ways to support yourself and others through life after loss.
Today we're talking about disenfranchised grief, a kind of grief that often gets overlooked not because it hurts less, but because the world doesn't always recognize it as grief. It sounds like a fancy counseling term, but it simply means grief that isn't acknowledged, validated, or supported by the people around us. We explore the grief that often goes unseen, why we minimize certain losses, and why naming them can be one of the most healing things we do. www.rgfpod.com Instagram: www.inst...

Today we're busting one of the biggest myths about grief which is that healing should move in a straight line. Most people discover pretty quickly that grief doesn't work that way.

And that's usually the moment people think, "I must be doing this wrong." But what if you're not? What if healing isn't linear because people aren't linear? We explore wh...

Holding Space, But Not the Weight
Today we're talking about how to show up with compassion without carrying someone else's grief as your own. Because empathy is a beautiful gift, but it isn't meant to come at the expense of your own well-being. We explore compassion fatigue, healthy boundaries, and why taking care of yourself isn't selfish—it's actually what allows you to keep showing up. www.rgfpod.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/rgfpod Hosted by 3Hopeful Hearts: www.3hopefulhearts.com/

What if There IS a Wrong Way to Grieve
We kick off season 2 with an episode about one of the most common phrases you'll hear after someone experiences loss: "There's no wrong way to grieve." We discuss the difference between honoring your grief and avoiding it, giving yourself grace without giving yourself permission to stay trapped, and what healthy grieving actually looks like. www.rgfpod.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/rgfpod Hosted by 3Hopeful Hearts: www.3hopefulhearts.com/

Who Died and Made Me So Funny?
Grief is heavy but sometimes, laughter sneaks in. In this first episode of Resting Grief Face, I share a raw story from the day my son died and how unexpected humor gave us a moment to breathe.
