Living after interpersonal loss - Lisa Clark (Part 2) - Episode 150

One commonality between betrayal and loss is that they are events out of our control. They are both circumstances that happen to us, and we must choose how to respond and heal. Today we continue the discussion with Lisa Valentine Clark on interpersonal loss. In this episode we cover:

• How to avoid treating grief too lightly with humor
• How tragedy sharpens what you know about yourself
• Allowing grief and living to take turns
