Lessons in Grief & Letting Go With Jeanne Sartor

more places

They say that people who die see a light at the end of the tunnel. But what about those who are left behind? Is there a light at the end of the tunnel of grief for them?

Grief has more than one definition, the one that we are doing to focus on is the what the Cambridge Dictionary defines as, ‘very great sadness, especially at the death of someone.’

Those of us who do not die tragically young must experience loss at some point in our lives. If you never love anyone, you never have to lose anyone, but humans cannot flourish without love. The more people you love in your lifetime, the more people you may lose as your life runs its course. Think about it for a moment: every person you love, you will either have to live on after they die or they will have to live on after you die.

Grief can get trapped in the body if not properly released and it can cause a host of health problems. Our guest today is someone who has experienced first-hand the workings of grief on her mind and body and will share what she has learned and experienced the hard way, to the benefit of others who may today or one day in the future need such knowledge and advice.

Jeanne Sartor is a woman who has done many things in her life. She is a world traveler, born in California and she has lived in Boston, New York, Berlin and various cities in Italy. She has founded her own media company, been head of business development for two global media empires, raised two boys into teenagers, and she has had to grieve the deaths of many people she has loved. Most recently, her two sons lost their father to cancer.

She has had to face the deaths of her husband, her sister and both her parents. Jeanne has used a number of different methods that she has learned to process grief and today she will share them with us and host Caitlin Arnould.
