Aloha! Welcome to the Grief and Happiness podcast. My name is Emily Thiroux Threatt, and I am your host. I am the author of Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief, The Grief and Happiness Handbook, and creator of Grief and Happiness Cards: Gentle Support for Dealing with Grief and Finding Happiness

My purpose with the Grief and Happiness Podcast is to demonstrate to people who are dealing with grief and loss that they can grieve and be happy at the same time. The wide variety of guests address the myriad of issues that arise with loss and the spectrum of how grief and happiness relate. After a loved one dies, often people say they will never be happy again. By covering thought-provoking topics like creativity, compassion, community, purpose, inner peace, strength, coping, surrendering, and resilience with authors, speakers, coaches, and friends, listeners find inspiration and confidence guiding them on their grief journey. Each week the podcast showcases an interview with an inspiring guest and an additional brief podcast with a message of support and comfort.

Anyone dealing with grief or loss can come to the Grief and Happiness podcast to find comfort, support, love, and happiness. You are welcome here to learn ways to live your best life.

  • Lost, Breathless, in Despair: How Grace Trail Founder Turned One Word Into a Five-Question Lifeline

    Lost, Breathless, in Despair: How Grace Trail Founder Turned One Word Into a Five-Question Lifeline
    2026/09/08
    If you've ever wondered how one word, scrawled on a beach stone, could turn into a national movement, episode 456 of Grief and Happiness is for you. Grace Trail founder Anne Barry Jolles shares how five simple questions pulled her out of grief and later helped her cope while her son served in combat overseas. She shows how the right questions, asked at the right moment, can turn despair into a path forward.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(00:49) Anne introduces Grace Trail and its five-question framework(01:51) The kitchen floor breakdown that gave birth to the five questions(04:30) Walking the questions with her husband turned grief into connection(07:00) Her son's deployment to Afghanistan and the birth of the first physical trail(13:03) From beach stones to boulders: what a Grace Trail looks like, and its growth into schools, hospitals, and workplaces(19:43) Grace Trail's international reach and the search for a partner to help it scale(22:08) Trail kits, meaningful gifts, and the power of writing your answers down(25:13) Letting nature guide the process — and Anne's closing thoughtsAnne Barry Jolles is an occupational therapist and certified professional coach who founded Grace Trail®, a national resilience movement built around five guiding questions: gratitude, release, accept, challenge, and embrace. She created the process in 2000 while grieving the loss of both her parents, and has since coached more than 2,000 clients and delivered the TEDx talk "Cracking the Grace Code." Her work has earned her ICF New England's Life Coach of the Year award and international recognition, including a feature in Marie Claire Hungary.In this episode, Anne shares the origin story behind Grace Trail, tracing how the five questions emerged intuitively from the word "grace" during that period of grief, and how the practice deepened after her son returned from combat in Afghanistan in 2012. She describes Grace Trail's growth from hand-lettered stones on a Massachusetts trail to more than a dozen licensed installations nationwide, spanning universities, hospitals, schools, and a farm in Texas, with an upcoming VA site honoring her son's service. She also discusses the trail kits she designed for those without trail access, the simple rules that keep it safe — privacy, confidentiality, judgment-free listening — and her hope to expand Grace Trail nationwide and eventually worldwide.Connect with Anne Barry Jolles:WebsiteFacebookLinkedInInstagramXYouTubeGet Anne’s books!Let's Connect: WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagramTwitterPinterestThe Grief and Happiness AllianceBook: Emily Thiroux Threatt - Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief Hosted on Acast.

    He Lost His Dad on 9/11 at 12 — Then Built a Podcast Empire on Grief
    2026/09/01
    If you've ever wondered how getting deliberately lost could help you heal, episode 456 of Grief and Happiness is for you. David Ferrugio, host of Dead Talks Podcast, shares how losing his father on 9/11 at 12 led to hundreds of conversations about grief and the afterlife. From a solo motorbike ride into Thailand's dark hills to the guilt over public attention, David shows how isolation and risk can carry us through grief.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(00:58) David Ferrugio's introduction and the origin of Dead Talks(01:49) Losing his father on 9/11 at age 12(04:07) Why grief feels universal yet deeply isolating(06:36) Finding community through grief camps and shared experience(08:40) The unexpected path to writing his book(11:15) Why he kept the book eclectic instead of prescriptive(13:40) Finding hope in hundreds of stories, and a solo ride into Thailand's unknown(18:45) The illusion of control and learning to adapt(19:21) Saying yes to uncertainty as a way through grief(26:29) Dead Talks Podcast and his upcoming book, You're Not Dead YetDavid Ferrugio hosts Dead Talks Podcast, which for six years has normalized conversations about grief, loss, and the afterlife through guests' own experiences with death. Having lost his father on 9/11 at 12, he learned the value of sharing stories, a loss that became the foundation of his work and has led to hundreds of conversations on grief and the afterlife. He's also author of the forthcoming book You're Not Dead Yet, out September 8th, blending his story with lessons from his guests.In this episode, David traces how losing his father at 12 shaped an evolving understanding of grief, describing the paradox of feeling isolated despite strong family support, and how guilt over the attention his loss received sparked Dead Talks as a way to spotlight other people's stories. He describes his upcoming book as an eclectic, non-prescriptive collection of perspectives rather than a formula for healing, and shares a story about a solo motorbike ride in Thailand that became a metaphor for stepping into the unknown. The episode closes on how saying yes to uncertainty, and taking the next step, often carries people through grief.Connect with David Ferrugio:WebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubePodcast: DEAD TalksBook: David Ferrugio - You’re Not Dead YetLet's Connect: WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagramTwitterPinterestThe Grief and Happiness AllianceBook: Emily Thiroux Threatt - Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief Hosted on Acast.
