On Pet Loss and Grief

After a few months off the podcast taking care of my sick soul-pup he peacefully crossed the rainbow bridge. Today I'm back, feeling a lot lighter, and talking all things pet loss and pet grief. In this episode of In The Meadow I cover what helped me through the disenfranchised grief of losing a fur baby, how to help others in your life when they lose one, and ways to create pet memorials (whether your fur baby is still here or passed!). This episode title might be something avoidant feeling to some, and I understand that, but I promise it's a happy approach of what I wish I knew and took the time to think about before unexpectedly having to face euthanizing my sweet pup.
