The Mary Mac Show | What Not to Say to Comfort a Grieving Friend or Relative

The Mary Mac Show PodcastIn last week’s Episode 124, we talked about what to say to comfort a loved one or friend who are bereaved.

In this week’s Episode 125, we discuss how a grieving friend or relative’s life has changed and what you should NOT say if you want to comfort and support them through their grieving process.

Some of us have never experience the death of a loved one and do not know how to comfort another.

If this is the case, these episodes will be extremely beneficial for you especially if this bereaved person is very close to you and will be counting on your support as they move through this very difficult time in their life.

We may think that we can ‘wing it’ but often times that only leaves to more hurt feelings. Don’t leave that to chance.

This is very sensitive time and if you don’t want to leave behind more damage, learn what to say and especially what not to say to comfort and help them.

They rely on their friends and relatives to do the right thing, to learn what that is, and to do it.

They are already in enough pain and are counting on you not to make it worse.

Also in this episode, we discuss how life is changing for them now. They are slowly building a new life and reevaluating who and what should be in it.

So listen in to Episode 125 where we give you specific language to help you support that special friend or relative who is grieving a loved one’s death.

Much Love,

Mary Mac

The Mary Mac Show | How To Comfort a Grieving Friend or Relative

The Mary Mac Show Podcast

In Episode 26, we look at various ways to comfort a friend or relative who is dealing with the extreme fallout caused by the death of a loved one.

There are times in the grieving process where we completely break down and collapse.

We collapse into the arms of someone we feel safe with. Someone we can cry our eyes out with; someone who will not judge us for how it all comes out of us.

Is that you?

Have you ever done that for someone who was completely overwhelmed after someone they loved died?

Well in today’s episode, I talk about how to help someone who really needs you.

Someone who needs a safe place to just let it all out.

The overwhelming sorrow and the overwhelming anger.

If you have what it takes to be that for someone, this episode will teach you how.

Only unique individuals need apply.

Here are some places to visit (you can also find them in the show notes on podcast Episode 26:
