Description: Grief doesn’t follow a neat timeline—and for Rebecca Feinglos, it took stepping away from her career to finally step into it. After losing both of her parents and navigating a divorce, Rebecca committed to what she calls a grieve leave—a year dedicated to processing her pain and exploring what it really means to mourn. That time turned into a movement.In this episode, Rebecca shares how Grieve Leave was born, why she believes grief deserves intentional space, and how hosting “Sad Hours” gatherings has become a powerful way for people to show up for their emotions—and for each other. Whether you’re grieving a recent loss or still carrying something from years ago, this conversation offers both permission and possibility.Resources & Ways to Connect Grieve Leave Website: https://www.grieveleave.com Grieve Leave Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grieveleave APOY Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aplaceofyespodcast Heather’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathersstraughter Jake’s Help from Heaven Website: http://jakeshelpfromheaven.org/ Jake’s Help from Heaven Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakeshelp Jake’s Help from Heaven Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jakeshelpfromheaven Our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@aplaceofyespodcast
