EP. 11 How do you survive the holidays after losing a loved one? How do you move through the stages of grief? How do you keep going or continue to live your life without that person there? Things just don't feel the same...

Join Bria and her favorite cousins as they talk about how they got through their grieving process after losing their mother, father, grandparents, aunts and uncles.

Get ready to take notes and grab gems as they discuss things like: Losing a parent at a young age, advice for grief during the holidays, keeping old traditions and starting new ones, and what to do instead of suppressing your emotions. Move through grief towards acceptance instead of sitting in denial or regret.

Towards the end of the episode, Keshia and Jayne are challenged to a round of Holiday TRIVIA that is guaranteed to make you roll on the floor LAUGHING! See if you know the answers to these holidays favorites!

Thank you for listening! More Videos OTW! :)
