This podcast is sponsored by SOULPLUSGRACE serving the San José area, offering grief support and grief journeying with spirituality. I hope to help you travel through grief with God at your side.

"I am a trained Spiritual Director for those who seek to complete the 19th Annotation of St. Igantius’ spiritual exercises OR seek spiritual direction while grieving. I have also worked as a hospital/cemetery chaplain and grief doula. I believe all paths lead to God and that all traditions are due respect and honour. I take my sacred inspiration from all of my patients and companions–past, present and future; the Dalai Lama, James Tissot, St. John of the Cross, the Buddha, Saint Teresa of Ávila, and, of course, Íñigo who became known as St. Ignatius. I utilize art, poetry, music, aromatherapy, yoga, lectio divina, prayer and meditation in my self-work and work with others. I believe in creating a sacred space for listening; even in the most incongruous of surroundings."

  • Intimate Loss: Grieving a Lover
    2025/06/13

    Send us a text

    The loss of a lover represents the most intimate and personal of all losses, one that people rarely discuss even in grief groups or therapy sessions. Through Pablo Neruda's powerful love poems, we explore how poetry can give voice to the unique grief of losing a romantic partner and provide comfort for those experiencing this particular type of loss.

    • Grief differs across various types of losses, requiring different approaches beyond a one-size-fits-all solution
    • The intimate nature of losing a lover creates unique challenges in sharing and processing this grief
    • Pablo Neruda's Nobel Prize-winning poetry offers powerful language that captures the experience of mourning a lost love
    • Poetry provides a way to express complex feelings of absence, continuing bonds, and the contradictory emotions that characterize romantic grief

    Remember I'm always available for spiritual direction by Zoom to those who are grieving.

  • Into Darkness: Suicide and Grief
    2025/06/06

    Send us a text

    CAUTION: TODAY'S EPISODE DISCUSSES SUICIDE, PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND SKIP TODAY IF THE SUBJECT SEEMS TOO INTENSE.

    Today, we explore the concept of "self-death" as an alternative term for suicide, reflecting onmy recent experiences supporting those grieving after suicide. The topic emerges from a week filled with suicide-related grief conversations and the loss of a work colleague, leading to deeper questions about how we support survivors and understand this form of loss.

    • Unlike other losses, suicide involves someone taking themselves away rather than being "taken"
    • The belief that God embraces those who die by suicide without judgment or limits
    • Survivors of suicide loss often report having no safe place to discuss their grief
    • The metaphor of "dismemberment" helps frame how suicide severs connections with loved ones
    • Modern medicine has blurred the line between life and death, complicating our understanding and empathy
    • Certainty lies only in divine love; everything else remains complicated and nuanced
