Summary

Have you or are you currently grieving something or someone? Do you struggle with feeling joy? Are you in a dark place and don't know how to pull yourself out? Do you want to live a full, expansive life- even if there are struggles and sadness along the way? Today we have Bozoma Saint John, influencer and businesswoman here to talk to us all about grief, the complexity of our emotions, and how to start choosing joy. She opens up about her heart-wrenching journey with grief, the eye-opening life lessons grief taught her, and how to learn to truly live with grief. We all experience grief in our lives, and this episode will help you feel less alone in that experience. Bozoma reminds us all that there is still joy and happiness out there, and that we shouldn’t feel guilty for having those joyous moments even when are in the middle of grieving.
