Have you ever carried grief you didn't have a name for? Today's guest, Dawn Michele Jackson, a registered nurse, bestselling author, and Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist, spent decades watching patients' unprocessed emotions show up as physical illness. When her own life was fraught with an alcoholic father, an abusive boyfriend, and she later experienced a painful divorce, and the eventual loss of her dad, Dawn knew life didn't have to be so challenging. She learned how to process her grief through an action-based program that didn't just take the edge off, it changed how she viewed the earlier struggles in her life, and allowed her to process them and find happiness moving forward.

In this episode, Dawn walks us through the Grief Recovery Method: what it is, how it works, and why grief is so much bigger than death. Whether you're carrying loss from a relationship, a childhood, a divorce, or a loved one's passing, this conversation is for you.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Why grief is a normal, natural response to any loss, transition, or change
  • What the Grief Recovery Method is and how the multiple sessions work
  • How unhealed grief shows up in the body as physical illness
  • Dawn's personal journey through childhood pain, divorce, and losing her dad
  • Why this method gives you tools for life, not dependency
  • How healing changed Dawn's relationships, self-worth, and ultimately led to a joyful marriage
