Moving On Doesn't Mean Letting Go (A Conversation With Grief Therapist And Author Gina Moffa)

Gina Moffa is a grief therapist and someone who has navigated grief personally, too. After losing her mother, she realized there was more she wished she could have told patients who had navigated similar experiences. We talk about how grief requires you to reset expectations, what role signs or spirituality can take in your journey, and how getting back to the basics of self-care helps as you’re grieving.
