In this powerful episode, we sit down with Grief Coach Rachel McGonigle, a mother who turned unthinkable loss into a mission to support others walking through grief. Rachel shares her deeply personal journey navigating life after the loss of her twin girls—while still showing up as a mom to her son.
She opens up about what it felt like in the early days, when the message was simply to “deal with it” or figure it out alone. Instead of accepting the stigma of silence, Rachel did the opposite: she dove into learning, healing, and gathering every resource she could find. And she refused to keep any of it to herself.
That desire to learn and share ultimately led her to write her book, The Truth About Healing After Loss: A Proven Way Forward For Grievers Who Reject The “Forever Broken” Narrative and Want To Heal. In it, Rachel challenges outdated beliefs about grief and offers a path forward for those who want to heal without feeling guilty for it.
Today, she uses her education, personal experience, and compassion not as a way to erase pain, but to empower others to move through it with support, honesty, and hope.
