July 20, 2020 | Transforming Grief and Fear into Love and Grace | Patti Ashley, PhD

Many of us are experiencing grief as we navigate the current world circumstances but it doesn’t have to paralyze us with fear or inaction. How can we heal our wounds and return to love and grace as we emerge from the chaos and not only survive but THRIVE?

Best-Selling Author, International Speaker, and Psychotherapist Patti Ashley, Ph.D., LPC, shines a light on how we can emerge from these trying times with hope and transform grief and fear into love and grace.

An important interview that deals with personal loss of many kinds, Patti will discuss the five stages of grief, how grief and fear have similar nervous system responses, as well as how to talk to children about death and dying and other types of grief they might be experiencing in these turbulent times.
