From Grief to Growth: Processing Emotions and Building Resilience With Claire Garner
In this episode, Bethany Jasmin speaks with Claire Garner, an intuitive emotional healing practitioner, about her personal journey into emotional healing and the framework she developed for ongoing self-discovery and resilience. They explore the roots of emotional coping patterns, the societal pressures that keep us disconnected from our feelings, and how grief — far beyond loss — can be a powerful guide for transformation and self-realization. Claire shares how somatic awareness, self-compassion, and deepening our inner dialogue can help us process anxiety, move through big emotions, and build lasting self-regulation — and why healing is not a destination, but an ever-deepening return to yourself.
