Finding Strength in Grief and Light at the End of the Tunnel
Description
In 2008, Rachel McGonigle endured the unimaginable heartbreak of losing both of her twin baby daughters, Ellie and Aubrey, within six days. This devastating experience made Rachel painfully aware that society offers little guidance pertaining to healing after loss, and grief is one of our culture's most misunderstood experiences.
After she had experienced overwhelming pain and frustration with the limited support she was receiving from therapy and support groups, Rachel took healing into her own hands and embarked on her own path to recovery, refusing to accept that the pain and emptiness she was experiencing had to be permanent.
Thanks to her courage and perseverance, Rachel discovered that healing after loss is possible. She successfully nurtured her own heart and life back to health, and Rachel is now dedicated to sharing the tools, skills, and insights that helped her heal with others.
Tune into this powerful interview about how we can become more powerful than the pain of grief, the negative effects of unresolved grief, the physical toll of grief, Rachel’s personal path to healing, and more, for a touching interview filled with inspiring and wise healing insights!
