My Friend Leah on Losing Her Nan, How To Approach a Funeral and the Power of your Mindset!
Manage episode 448414836 series 3607908
In today’s episode, I’m joined by my best friend Leah to discuss her recent experience of losing her nan. Leah and I have been friends for 13 years and so we’ve been through a lot together and witnessed each other’s highs and lows throughout the years.
Leah had a close and special relationship with her nan and sadly arrived home from travelling earlier this year to the devastating news that she had passed away.
In this conversation, Leah shares her story of her final goodbye with her nan, what it was like being away from her family while her nan was ill, what the months have been like since her nan passed, and some of the mindset shifts she has taken on to help her deal with this loss.
We talk about:
- Leah’s experience of being away from home travelling during her nan’s final weeks, and how she handled the sadness and worry alongside the contrasting experience of being away on a once-in-a-lifetime trip
- Arriving home to such devastating news and what the aftermath was like, including her heartache for her mum
- Funerals, how weird they can be, and both of our experiences of speaking and singing at funerals of loved ones we’ve lost, as well as not knowing how to act and how to balance the mourning of the lost person alongside celebrating their life
- Leah’s decision to go travelling again after her nan’s funeral, and how she’s shifted her mindset to positivity
And much more!
