Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life · Silence Comforts Grief · 14 Aug 2026 podcast

You're not trying to heal. voice-verified

You're not you're literally just sitting with the person who's grieving, uh, and recognizing that silence is a great comforter. voice-verified

That presence that you can have with another person when they're going through grief, right? voice-verified

You can be present to their unexpressed uh needs, right? voice-verified

Sometimes they don't even know what need they have, right? voice-verified

But if you're trying to solve the the perceived need that you think is happening, but they really have a different one, you're just getting in the way. voice-verified

Right. voice-verified

you can y sit with that person in silence and have this mutual encouragement and depth and compassion. voice-verified

Um, I I recently had a conversation with a dear friend of mine and we're going through very um similar kind of experiences and they're just human experiences, you know, they're not it's not there's nothing wrong, there's nothing bad with it, it's not something that needs to be fixed. voice-verified

I mean, there are things that that both of us are going through that we're, you know, we're we're doing our work, we're, you know, taking care of ourselves, but we're also noticing voice-verified

You know, the responses that we're having as we're going through these changes, right? voice-verified

That there's some grief, there's a sense of loss, but there's also an excitement for the future, there's concern, but also, hey, everything's going to work out. voice-verified

So a deep faith, right? voice-verified

Um, even though there might be moments of anxiety, there's more moments of joy. voice-verified

And as we were having this conversation, I just kept thinking about how much. voice-verified

Compassion. voice-verified

And consideration and care and kindness and mutual encouragement and depth we had for each other in that moment. voice-verified

Neither one of us got to the end of the conversation and said, All our problems are solved. voice-verified

I know what to do. voice-verified

Neither one of us told each other what we had to do. voice-verified
