David Kessler, Grief Specialist & Author, “Finding Meaning: The SIXTH STAGE of GRIEF”
Sep 11, 2024
Please welcome to our show David Kessler, a leading expert on
grief and loss, who will be discussing the different stages of
grief along with his book, “Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of
Grief.” Like most people, I’ve had my fair share of grief, and it
rocked me in way I could barely recognize myself. I can say I wish
I was introduced to David sooner, but everything has
a place and time.
David’s personal experience as a child witnessing a mass
shooting while his mother was dying undoubtedly had a profound
effect on him. He went on to teach physicians, police officers, and
first responders about grief and how to best handle grief. But he
wasn’t prepared for what followed, which was the untimely death of
his 21-year-old son. That profound grief prompted him to write his
latest book, “Finding Meaning,” which has helped thousands do the
same. Also, grief extends beyond death. It
includes the loss of a relationship, job, or something of meaning
that extends to loss. He will talk about that, too.
Please join me in welcoming David on all video and audio platforms of #deborahkobyltlive , and invite your friends, too, particularly anyone who is grieving. I’m your host, #DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s my pleasure to welcome you here.
