Do you ever feel upset over plans changing or things not going the way you had planned it out? In this episode we dive into ambiguous grief (i.e. when things don't go according to plan, grieving unmet expectations, accepting life's curveballs) (ex: infertility, divorce, financial distress, marital problems, parental disputes). Whether big or small understanding and being able to work through ambiguous grief can be so helpful!
1. Most of us have a vision or an expectation of how our life should go and when it doesn't we feel out of control and sometimes devastated. (For example: I dreamed of a certain dynamic for my children's relationship & the relationship I have with my mom/in laws) How can we acknowledge and grieve these unmet expectations?
2. I feel like I processed through the grief of my unmet expectations but am hit with another wave of grief for the same thing months or years later. Am I not moved on? Is something wrong with me?
3. What are some tips to let go of life-plan related and or anticipatory anxiety to better prepare for life's curveballs?
