Be Unmessablewith: The Podcast hosted by Josselyne Herman-Saccio28 Aug 2025

Face It!

What do you do when life hits you with the unthinkable? When something happens that could break you, stop you in your tracks, and make you question everything?

In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Brian D. Smith, who shares his story of losing his 15-year-old daughter Shana and how he went from unimaginable pain to becoming a guide for others navigating grief. This isn’t a story about getting over it. It’s about what it takes to keep going, to grow, to heal, and to live a life that honors the people we’ve lost.

Brian gets real about what grief actually looks like, why honoring your loved ones has nothing to do with staying miserable, and how to reframe your pain into purpose.

In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

• How grief shows up in all areas of life, not just after death

• The moment Brian realized staying stuck wasn’t an option

• Why shoulds and superlatives like never or always mess with our healing

• The 4-part GEMS method to ground yourself every single day • A fresh take on mindfulness and meditation even if you think you can’t do it

• How to make gratitude real and not just another checklist item

One of My Favorite Moments:

“The way to honor the people we’ve lost isn’t by staying in misery. It’s by continuing to live, with them beside us.”

If You’re Going Through Something Right Now Whether you’ve lost someone, are anticipating a loss, or are grieving the life you thought you’d have, Brian offers a free gift: a short downloadable version of his book GEMS of Healing Get it at: 👉 grief2growth.com/gems
