As a grief recovery specialist, trainer, and former speech pathologist, I’ve walked the long road of trying to help others without the right tools.
In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with Cole James to share the real story of how the Grief Recovery Method transformed both my practice and my life. Before discovering this method, I did everything “right” on paper—offering spiritual counseling, holding space, listening deeply.
Yet the clients kept returning with the same unresolved pain. That’s when burnout hit. What I needed was not more compassion—it was completion. Through this powerful method, I found the structure and emotional tools that traditional therapy never gave me. And once I saw what was possible, I couldn’t turn back.
✅ In this candid conversation, Cole and I dive into:
✅ What makes grief recovery radically different from therapy
✅ Why professionals feel ill-equipped to handle grief
✅ How burnout often signals an emotional blockage in your clients
✅ And how a structured method can help them—and you—heal
