EP21 Alison Sayers "...there's always unknowns...the current is always going to take you in directions that maybe you didn't quite predict..."

In this conversation, the main theme is expiration and I had so much fun exploring Alison Sayers' beautiful mess.
We cover a lot in a very short space of time, including how it is to be an older parent, what it means to guide others, emotional regulation, neurodiversity and so many other topics.
I hope you find as much value in this conversation as I did.

EP16: Amber Williams..."I will never say that there are four stages, seven stages...whatever stages of grief..."

This conversation with Amber Williams was a genuine light bulb learning process for me...
Amber has an exceptional story related to her work as a nurse, arriving at oncology a little later in her nursing career...and then following where life unexpectedly took her next with such courage and commitment.
Amber has also experienced grief in many different ways and the story we focus on here is the loss of her husband Carl in October 2021.
Tune in for an incredible conversation about grief, loss, faith and so many other nuggets!
Amber's work is now also focused on grief coaching... zeroing in on female healthcare professionals who, as Amber herself did, feel burnt out, stressed or who want to keep work from affecting the rest of their life.
