In this year of collective grief, we mourn the people, the stability and the life experiences we have lost.

How do we cope with this grief and how do we help each other

through it? Welcome back to savvy psychologist. I'm your host Dr Jade Wu. Every

week I'll help you meet life's challenges with evidence-based research a sympathetic ear and zero judgment

today I talk to Dr. Patty Ashley psychotherapist and best-selling author about going through grief to the grace on the other side.

As we get closer to the end of an unprecedented year, I'm reflecting back on experiences, losses, lessons, emotions, and one that really

stands out to me is grief.

We recently cover grief on the show already, but I think it's worth

revisiting because this is just such a deep and complex topic. It's really

difficult to break it down into quick and dirty tips.

But luckily I got the chance to have an in-depth conversation

with someone who is an expert on grief

both through professional and personal experiences and who will be able to help us

understand how grief works and how there is Ashley love and beauty in it.

It's my pleasure to welcome Dr. Patty Ashley, a best-selling

author, international speaker, and psychotherapist with over 35 years of

experience. She works with individuals and families to break through ingrained barriers to personal

freedom in authentic growth and to excavate the truth of self-love, belonging, and connection.

She is the author of Letters to Freedom. belonging and

The Connection.
