Can grief be a good thing? Recently, I participated in the Toastmasters International Speech Competition. The title of my speech: âGood Grief!â
With all of the losses we all have incurred during the pandemic, we may not recognize we are grieving â a lot. Using Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Rossâ model of the Five Stages of Grief, I talk about how to recognize grief. The key is that we need to allow ourselves to feel what many consider ânegativeâ emotions.
Hereâs the speech, followed by the text. I hope it helps you understand and feel better about all the challenges we are facing.
