Welcome to Hope After Loss: Gentle Conversations for Grieving Hearts.
If you've found your way here because you've lost someone you love, you're not alone and I'm really glad that you are here.
I'm Marilyn Burns, M.S., L.P.C.C., a licensed professional clinical counselor, author and fellow traveler through grief. Through personal stories, professional insight and compassionate conversations, this podcast offers hope, practical guidance and encouragement for anyone navigating the pain of loss.
This podcast is lovingly dedicated to my beloved son, Chris, whose life, love and memory continue to inspire my work and my commitment to bringing hope to others.
