Lifting The Lid - Episode 21 - The one where we invite our first guest - discussing bereavement, grief and loss

Clare and Steve are joined by Julia Menaul for an exploration of grief, loss, death and bereavement in coaching and supervision. Julia, a master coach, supervisor, director of AoCS and an author, explores with Clare and Steve the story that lead to her co-authoring a book on this topic, to be published in 2022. Together our podcasters and guest explore our personal, societal and cultural relationships to death. They also discuss how grief and loss come in many more guises - be it loss of job, divorce, the pandemic, and can also show up in perceived positive experiences, such as retirement, marriage, birth. Each shares personal stories relating to grief and loss. Our threesome go on to explore what we can do as coaches to prepare and support our clients - be that personal development work on ourselves, such as exploring our own loss, trauma or death narrative; be it honouring what is with our client - "feel before we deal"; or maybe applying some of the basic models we already have knowledge of as coaches and supervisors, such as the change curve or William Bridges transitions model.AC Webinar Series: Coaching Through Bereavement in a Pandemic - a series of three 90 minute sessions in March / April 2020 with Julia Menaul and Maggie João: https://bit.ly/39JImvvhttps://www.associationofcoachingsupervisors.com/
