- Living loss: How we can all experience grief during times of change at any point in life such as losing a job, moving house, becoming a parent, aging or during a pandemic.
- How the pandemic has bought up the reality of our mortality a lot more up close and personal and what this means for us all moving forward.
- Julia shares her 8 pillars to help you feel more steady and become more resilient and better adapt to and navigate change.
- Julia unpacks the biggest misconceptions that surround grief around 'getting over it', healing with time, forgetting and moving on.
- The importance of talking about death and loss. How the Victorians did grief well but sex badly in comparison to nowadays where we talk about sex a lot but are very bad at talking about death.
