156 | Building Resilience through Grief: A Conversation with Certified Coach Julie Lynn Ashley
Welcome to The Make Room Show, the podcast where we help you make room for what matters in your life. I'm your host, Jennifer Ford Berry, a professional organizer with years of experience in helping families simplify their homes and create space for the things that truly matter.
In this episode of the Make Room Show, we speak with certified grief coach, Julie Lynn Ashley, founder of Grief Resilience. As a former teacher of over 20 years, Julie experienced several losses in her family and realized the lack of support available for those going through grief. In this conversation, Julie shares her expertise on grief and the importance of addressing it, as unaddressed grief can lead to serious physical and emotional health problems down the road.
She provides tips on how to support someone who is grieving, including the importance of simply listening and offering practical support. Julie also discusses her work at Grief Resilience, which focuses on helping individuals build their resilience in the face of grief through one-on-one coaching, group coaching sessions, and workshops. As a professional organizing expert, it's important to understand the role of grief in our lives and how it can impact our ability to organize and simplify our spaces. This conversation provides valuable insights on how to support those going through grief and build resilience in the face of loss.
