The Grief Expert Who Discovered a Sixth Stage | David Kessler
10 August - 1 hour 22 minsYour grief is not the thing keeping you stuck. Running from it is.
David Kessler spent years working alongside Elisabeth Kubler-Ross before everything he taught got tested against his own life, when his son died unexpectedly and the grief expert became the one who needed help.
