About this episode
What if healing from grief isn’t about forgetting the person you lost, but learning to make room for love beyond the pain?
On this episode of Shaping Freedom, Lisane Basquiat speaks with grief specialist, author, and founder of The Grief School Sharon Brubaker. After experiencing a devastating loss in her own family, Sharon dedicated her work to helping others understand and navigate grief.
Sharon shares why we've been taught to hide our pain, how unresolved grief can affect us for years, and why loss goes far beyond death. Together, they explore the importance of allowing ourselves to grieve, speaking honestly about loss, and letting go of the belief that moving forward means forgetting. Because healing isn't about losing the love. It's about making room for it again.
