Summary

There seems to be a stigma around grief, doesn’t there? As if this very raw and real human emotion is somehow “bad” and must do everything in our power to suppress it. In this liberating episode, Marisa Renee Lee, author of the new book Grief is Love, speaks to this. After experiencing the significant loss of her mother at a young age to Multiple Sclerosis and stage four breast cancer and then going through a miscarriage later in life, she began asking the deeper questions of how to live a life of joy through the acceptance of grief. If you’ve ever experienced loss, as we all do at some time or another, I encourage you to press play and immerse yourself in this beautiful conversation! Marisa Renee Lee is a writer, speaker and entrepreneur well-known for her advocacy for women, black communities, and those overcoming grief. She’s the CEO of Beacon Advisors, co-founder of Supportal, and founder of The Pink Agenda. Prior to, she served as the Managing Director of the My Brother's Keeper Alliance, a non-profit organization born out of President Obama's initiative to address success barriers for men of color.
