“These experiences are normal. We deserve to do the heart-tending work that is necessary for the healing process and the process of evolution.” –Kris Carr
Intro
Best-selling author Kris Carr is one of my nearest and dearest. We go way back to my talent agent days (I represented her).
Kris’s newest book, I’m Not A Mourning Person: Braving Loss, Grief, and the Big Messy Emotions That Happen When Life Falls Apart, is a beautiful read. I could not put it down, and I lived a lot of this book with Kris as it was happening.
If you are experiencing grief of any kind, whether due to the loss of a loved one, the loss of your former self, or the loss of a job, I think you’ll enjoy this heartfelt conversation.
