We all experience grief as a regular part of life; however, many of us fall into the trap of escape addiction to run away from it. We find grief to be uncomfortable and overwhelming because we never learned how to grieve in healthy ways.

I have had the pleasure of talking to Lisa King about her journey:
"I wanted and needed to know who Lisa was without the alcohol. After my partners suicide and my subsequent breakdown, I needed to make a choice.
Alcohol was my go to, to celebrate, to commiserate, if I was happy, if I was stressed. I was at a crossroads, do I continue living the life behind the masks, with all the coping mechanisms, or do I choose the life of truly loving me, I CHOSE ME."
Lisa King is an International Speaker, TEDx Speaker, International Best Selling Author, Mentor and Clarity Trailblazer. Lisa runs challenges, creates workshops, hosts events, creates courses. Her passion is to empower and inspire people to fulfill their brilliance and live life on their terms. Lisa has also been nominated for this years Pride of Britain Award.
Lisa's passion is to inspire our next generation as well as those who are capable of achieving so much more, they just need reminding of how amazing they are, to show them what they are capable of.
Lisa's top 3 tips
1. It is all about you, others may not understand your journey, your reasons, your wants or your why. As long as you do, You've Got This.
2. Our past does not define who we are, take one step at a time and change your future by living in the present.
3. Remember your why, when you have challenges, be ready for them, plan ahead, you can do it

Research indicates that going through a divorce can be as traumatic as losing a loved one. With the added cultural and social barriers, men and women experiencing divorce often struggle with moving forward despite their best efforts. I’ll break down how to overcome all of your limiting beliefs and not let your past define your future. Your future is filled with endless possibility, no matter how grim the circumstances appear.
Syeda Neary is a divorce coach, supporting men and women who are experiencing divorce and ready to overcome their fears, guilt, and shame so that they can reclaim their life, heal their heart and create space to find love again.
She lives in New York City with her husband and two sons.
When Syeda isn't coaching, she loves working out, singing karaoke pre pandemic , and enjoying family game night.
Syeda's top 3 tips:
1. Your past doesn’t define you, you can choose to change the trajectory of your life by making one single decision
2. You don’t need weeks, months or years to decide to change your life. We have the power to decide, right now, and manage your mind around those decisions.
3. Our thoughts always create our results. When we think that divorce is the worst thing in the world, we are going to play out that story through our feelings and subsequent actions. But through the power of mindset and consistent rewiring of your brain and beliefs, you can shift to a better feeling thought like, divorce is actually a blessing. I believe this to be true for myself and my clients believe the same by the time we’re done working together.

In Dawn's words:
Truth and freedom have many levels to them. Depending on how honest we are with ourselves will depend on how our lives turn out. Our deepest darkest secrets, the truths we are afraid of, are the ones which will ultimately set us free, free from ill health, depression and free from need.
Nothing happens to us, which means everything happens for us. Depression is a choice, and so is dependency on alcohol, drugs, food, sex, and exercise. Addiction is addiction, and many are addicted to addiction.
Sound harsh? Well join us to find out just how true all this is.
Dawn Bates is a serial entrepreneur, business strategist, global thought leader and author coach. Author of The Trilogy of Life Itself, which includes first-hand accounts of living in Egypt during the turbulent Uprising and fighting back against Police Scotland in two unbelievable court cases. The trilogy exposes and challenges social stereotypes across various subjects including, but not limited to single parenting, racism, cultural diversity and religion.
Dawn’s writing is honest, frank and engaging, bringing humour and powerful insights to all who read it. She’s also the author of a plethora of articles for various global publications covering a multitude of subjects.
Dawn's top 3 issues:
1. Mirror work
2. Purging through writing
3. Giggle and Grow

There is much stigma to mental health issues in America and around the world. It is, perhaps, the most overlooked healthcare issue in society today. However, when we choose to address it and surround ourselves with people who refuse to let us ignore it, there IS healing and there IS Hope.
I am a Florida girl who loves a simple life, Jesus, family, friends, football, and the beach. I am a native of Jacksonville, Florida, but have spent most of my adult life on Florida’s west coast.
I grew up in a children’s home, graduated from Clearwater Christian College w (Biology 1994) and earned an MBA in 2002.. I am a trauma survivor of childhood abuse and domestic violence. By the time I got help, I’d survived 35 years of trauma.
I love both the written and spoken word, and enjoy opportunities to share my experiences and the faithfulness of God. My greatest desire is to invest my life in something that will outlive it.
There are 3 reasons I am here to even do this interview and they are all important
1. Church/Christ
2. Community
3. Counseling (Trauma Informed)
If people need trauma help, perhaps my podcast can help. Wednesdays With Watson is everywhere and on my website amywatsonauthor.com
