The Complexities of Healing with Regina Lawless

In this episode of Cocoa Butter and Communion Village, we are exploring community and connection (two of my favorite topics). Regina Lawless is back, and we explore processing and navigating grief after the sudden loss of her husband, and the societal discomfort around death and mourning. She also reflects on her experience of opening up to new love while honoring her late husband, and how her relationship with herself has transformed through this journey. She shares all of this and so much more with warmth, grace, and beauty. We laugh throughout this episode as we ponder the complexities of life.
