In this episode of Life With Grief, I sit down with author Theo Boyd for a deeply honest and heart-opening conversation about navigating layered loss and finding hope in profound grief.
Theo is the author of “My Grief Is Not Like Yours”and “Hope All the Way”, and she shares openly about the many losses that have shaped her life. Together, we explore what it truly means to live with grief when loss keeps stacking, and how healing and purpose can still exist alongside heartbreak.
We dig into:
✨ The accidental death of Theo’s mother and how that loss reshaped her world
✨ Losing her long-time counselor and the grief of losing a trusted support system
✨ Discovering her husband’s infidelity, navigating divorce, and grieving the life she thought she had
✨ Finding her father after he died by suicide and the complexity of suicide loss
✨ What it means to stay present with grief instead of rushing to “move on”
✨ Personal outlets for grief and ways to release what the body is carrying
✨ How hope and healing can show up in unexpected and spiritual ways
✨ Wisdom inspired by her deaf mother’s life and how it continues to guide her
✨ Gentle, grounding practices to help regulate the nervous system
This episode is a reminder that grief is deeply personal and never one-size-fits-all. Even in the midst of unimaginable loss, it’s possible to move toward purposeful living—without minimizing the pain or rushing the healing.
If you’re navigating multiple losses, complicated grief, or trying to hold onto hope after everything has changed, I hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone—and that your grief is allowed to look exactly the way it does.
