Through research and personal experiences with grief, they share strategies, powerful bits of wisdom, and practical tools they’ve discovered. They also discuss how they’ve applied these tools in their own lives, and what was most helpful in their process. This is the second in a two-part series on grieving. Click here to listen to part 1.

0:00.0	We all know that good habits are ways that we bring what we value into the world,
0:04.5	and we each have our own list of what matters to us. Maybe you want to feel more energetic,
0:09.0	improve your relationships, have a tidy your home, cook more instead of eating out for nights a week.
0:14.0	Whatever habit you want to build, it's entirely possible to make it happen. But if you feel
0:18.8	under-equipped and overwhelmed to make real sustainable change, you are not alone. And that's why I've
0:24.5	made my free masterclass open to everyone and available to watch anytime now. It's called
0:29.9	Habits that Stick, how to be remarkably consistent no matter what goal you set. You can grab it at
0:34.9	one-you-feed.net slash masterclass. Again, it's free and you can watch it whenever it works for you.

1:21.4	being the only one, feelings of shame, or evidence, we're somehow doing life wrong. Brandy and Ginny
1:27.9	hope that by giving voice to experiences, feelings, and thoughts we often keep to ourselves,
1:33.2	we can create a community with less shame and a deeper sense of belonging. I am so happy to share
1:38.8	their voices with you. I think you'll find these episodes a wonderfully nourishing and supportive
1:43.8	addition to the regularly scheduled One-You-Feed podcast episodes you are used to hearing here.
1:49.5	And now, I'm proud to present to you something to normalize.
