Whether facing the loss of a loved one, a divorce, a career pivot, or an empty nest, the hardest part is often feeling like you’re supposed to have it together when you can barely see the next step. Most of us cope by outrunning it – packing our schedules and soldiering on out of fear that if we open the door to what hurts, we’ll fall into a dark well and never climb out.
As trauma therapist Meghan Riordan Jarvis explains, our bodies won’t let us outrun heartbreak forever. In midlife, buried losses resurface as insomnia, brain fog, anxiety, or deep exhaustion. The good news? Our nervous system comes equipped with built-in biological guardrails to keep you safe through the storm.
In this candid conversation, host Mary Hofstedt sits down with Meghan to explore what loss actually does to our physiology, and how to navigate the aftermath without losing yourself. We’ll also preview Meghan’s upcoming in-person workshop at our Santa Fe campus, Moving Through Loss: From Grief to Grounded Renewal.
If you’re carrying a loss or transition that feels heavier than you can hold alone, join us live. You’ll walk away with practical relief, self-compassion, and steadier ground beneath your feet.
