Those of us who work in the healthcare world experience personal losses like all other humans. Sometimes our losses lead to our career choices and sometimes we are integrating losses into already established careers. How do we combine personal loss into our roles? And what happens when a loss of health and capacity lead to the need to step away form work we have been deeply committed to? As we talk about a recent book release of stories from health care professionals, we deepen our understanding of the ways loss and profession interweave. Are there ways a professional perspective helps our relationship to loss? Or sometimes does it not help? Join me with Cheryl Krauter, a contributor to Loss and Grief: Personal Stories of Doctors and Other Healthcare Professionals and Linda Klein, ones of its editors as we explore the book and its message.
On Good Grief we explore the losses that define our lives. Each week, we talk with people who have transformed themselves through the profound act of grieving. Why settle for surviving? Say yes to the many experiences that embody loss! Grief can teach you where your strengths are and ignite your courage. It can heighten your awareness of what is important to you and help you let go of what is not.
