Trigger Warning:

This episode includes discussion of the death of a child and may be emotionally difficult for some listeners.

Grief has a way of revealing who can sit in the hard places. In this episode of Because of Eli, we talk about losing a child and how relationships shift in the aftermath of loss.

Love doesn’t end at goodbye—and neither does grief.

This episode of Because of Eli is about holding space—for grief, for curiosity, and for yourself. We welcome a medium to discuss messages often sought in loss, the hope and healing they can bring, and how to navigate grief without losing yourself in it. Alongside this conversation, we focus on self-care as a vital part of surviving and living with loss. Come as you are. Listen with an open heart. Take what you need.

Welcome back! Today we're taking a moment to catch you up on what the last couple of months have looked like for us. We also share a conversation with a special guest who offered some thoughtful guidance on how to talk with children about death. As we move out of the holiday season, we want to acknowledge how heavy this time can be when you're grieving. We hope you found even small moments of comfort or connection, and if not, that's ok too. We're really glad you're here with us!

We teamed up with Iron Roots as Brooke-Linh and Gianna break down what Iron Roots is and how bodybuilding has impacted their healing and strength.

The holidays can bring joy, memories, and moments that tug at our hearts. This week, we talk about navigating it all- grief, traditions, and giving yourself permission to show up just as you are.

Addiction can take so much from a person - but recovery shows us the strength that still lives within. In this episode, we have an open and honest conversation about the realities of addiction, the courage it takes to seek help, and the hope that comes with healing. It's a reminder that no one is ever too far gone to begin again. 💫

Join us and our special guest, Reiki Master Dawn! Dawn shares how Reki can help those walking through grief and why self-care matters!

This halloween, we are reminding ourselves that it's ok to laugh- even through tears. Grief and joy can exist in the same breath. Sometimes healing looks like a good cry, and sometimes it looks like laughing until your stomach hurts.

Tune in for real talk, heart, and maybe a few giggles too! 👻🎃👻
