S2 E8 - Coping With Grief And Loss As An Empath

Chasing Carrots With Zazil Pereira

In this episode I’m joined by Jess Reis, also known as - the death empath. She is an ancestral death doula and grief buddy who helps empaths and highly sensitive people alchemize death, grief and loss through storytelling, singing, and dancing.

We discuss:

• How your sensitivity can help you navigate death, grief, and loss.
• Experiencing grief after losing a job, friendship, or your sense of identity.
• Common feelings and behaviors during the grief process.
• 2020 and how the collective is currently navigating grief and loss.
• Grieving in community and its impact on your mental and emotional well-being.
• Unhealthy coping mechanisms and how they keep you from grieving.
• Healing grief and loss by learning to feel your feelings.
• Why crying is a key component of regulating your nervous system.
• How childhood can impact your ability to cope with grief and loss.
• The role generational trauma plays in the expression of your grief.
