In this August 2025 Month in Review, we revisit three powerful conversations that dig deep into the human experience. First, we look at the raw reality of loss in Grief Sucks (Ep322), exploring how grief shapes daily life, the concept of "pre-grieving," and practices like routine, rituals, and self-care that help us carry the weight of loss. Next, in How to Handle Life's Transitions (Ep323), we unpack William Bridges' three-phase model of change while reflecting on the challenges of letting go, living in the "neutral zone," and embracing new beginnings—like when kids head off to college. Finally, The Challenge of Acceptance (Ep324) examines what it really means to accept reality, breaking down myths about resignation and highlighting tools like mindfulness, journaling, and language shifts to help us grow stronger in both our inner lives and relationships.
