End of Life and Grief Doula, Dianne Gray joins us today on Better Together. Her journey in this space, plus her unwavering commitment to improving care for seriously ill children was born from her 14-year experience as caregiver and mom to her ill son. In addition, dedication to her work was sparked from the sudden loss of her father to a heart attack when she was just 9 years old. Today, Maria and Dianne talk about how to cope with death and Dianne shares easy-to-apply tools for those who are grieving. Did you know that we can still connect with those who have passed and actually feel them?!! She also reveals that scientifically, love can never die...!! We learn how to correctly support someone who is grieving through an idea called companioning. Lastly, Dianne reminds us that it is not all about us. Everyone makes mistakes and we are all perfectly, imperfect. We hope you enjoyed this episode!

Hay Kweenz, Regular Guys and Girls, we fooled 'em again! We made it to another edition of Regular Guy Friday! Life is happening for you, not to you, and the universe has you always.  Nature walks will help raise awareness to see it but walking alone in LA at night may not be the best idea, Kelsey!  Lacking awareness, being self involved, chasing rainbows,  focusing on what the universe isn't giving you and medicating is a recipe for mediocrity (and medicating doesn't just come in the form of alcohol or drugs). Then comes the shame which can elevate or destroy you. How we view the past is rarely accurate, making the allowance of shame and guilt to destroy us even more pointless.  Kelsey knows what the kids mean then they ask 'who's got the aux? ' While Kev thinks it's all chugey. We wonder where Kelsey's friend Tom from Nordstrom is at with all of the above. And if you're really cool, you don't call your friends 'betches', you call them 'B's.'  Bye B's. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Going through a tough time? On today’s show, Maria talks about coping with rainy seasons and picking up the right umbrella . Bad things may be meant to happen in order to elevate you. Most positive  changes won't feel good - at first. Are you giving away your power? Want to raise your vibration when down - don't hang out with old acquaintances, hang out with new strangers, just ask Ester Hicks.  The  quality of your life  is a direct reflection of the expectations of your peers - just ask Tony Robbins.   Do those around your push you to reach your full potential. We certainly are trying  here!     Enjoy this episode and  share with a friend who you think would benefit from it,  too! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support
