Episode 14 — Living in the Fog

Early grief often doesn’t arrive with sharp edges or clear emotions.
 Instead, it shows up as fog — disorientation, slowness, numbness, and a sense of moving through life slightly out of reach.

In this episode, Lauren explores what it means to live inside the fog of grief — why it happens, how it affects daily life, and how to meet yourself with more understanding and less pressure during this tender season.

You’ll hear about:

• What “the fog” of grief actually feels like — mentally, emotionally, and physically
• Why fog, numbness, and disorientation are protective responses, not signs of failure
• How daily tasks can feel overwhelming in early grief (and how to soften expectations)
• The emotional waves and contrasts that often arise unexpectedly
• Gentle curiosity as a way to stay present without forcing clarity or healing
• Small, grounding micro-actions that help you feel steadier inside the haze

Lauren also introduces Through the Fog, a gentle, self-guided companion created for early grief — and for anyone who still feels unsteady, disconnected, or unsure of their footing after loss. The course includes short videos, small workbooks, grounding practices, and emotional language designed to support you without pressure to “move on” or perform your grief.
