What if grief isn’t something to fix… but a process to honour?

And what if the pain of loss is inseparable from the depth of your love?

In this deeply moving episode of Love Purpose Connection, Estelle is joined by Counselling Psychologist and Author Dr. Chloe to explore the many faces of grief.

From bereavement and miscarriage to divorce, sudden loss and the quiet, invisible griefs that so often go unseen.

Drawing on over 20 years of clinical experience, and her book The Loss Prescription, Dr. Chloe shares why grief is not a series of neat stages to “complete,” but an ongoing internal recalibration of the heart, brain and body.

Together, Estelle and Dr. Chloe explore what happens when the fabric of your life changes overnight, and how we gently learn to live with absence.

In this episode we cover:

✨ Why grief isn’t something you “get over”

✨ The myth of the five stages of grief

✨ How loss rewires the brain and floods the nervous system

✨ Traumatic grief and sudden, untimely loss

✨ Miscarriage, divorce and the many forms grief can take

✨ The connection between heartbreak, cortisol and the physical body

✨ Self-compassion as the foundation for healing

✨ The intelligence of the heart and neurocardiology

This is a conversation about surrender. About allowing yourself to be changed. About understanding that when you lose someone or something woven into the fabric of your life, you cannot remain the same and that this is not weakness, but humanity.

A tender, wise reminder that grief is the sister of love. And that even in the darkest seasons, there is a way through.
