• Effective Grieving What to Say and What Not to Say

    17 GIU 2024 · We discussed the role of a Grief & Trauma Coach in supporting those who are grieving, and providing them with tools to manage their situation. Claire emphasized how individuals grieve in their own ways and offered advice on what to say—and what not to say—to someone who is suffering. Additionally, we touched on concepts such as the 'Lumpy Legacy' and the idea of 'Two Truths.' Claire highlighted the need for society to better address death, dying, and grieving. She offers counseling via Zoom, making her services accessible to people everywhere.  Claire's book is quick to read and filled with valuable information. Betsy found it particularly helpful even though my husband passed away four years ago. I believe "Putting Out The Fire" should be in every clergy's library, as well as in hospices and funeral homes. Betsy highly recommends this book to anyone who has lost a loved one or is facing the loss of someone dear.

This is an update on news for Betsy Wurzel. In September 2019, Betsy started her career as a Talk Show Host at Passionate World Talk Radio and the name of her show was Chatting with Betsy. At that time she wanted to bring more awareness to the many issues with Dementia Diagnosis and what all Caregivers were dealing with. She was at that time a caregiver for her husband Matt who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Since then Betsy has taken on a bigger role and a range of the types of subjects that need to be discussed. Betsy will always have interviews with Caregivers as that is still near and dear to her heart. She will always bring awareness concerning caregivers but also will seek out the subjects and topics that one does not hear a lot on Internet Radio. She interviews, Doctors, Lawyers, Authors, Advocates, Celebrities, Entrepreneurs, and more. We could have added more but, wanted to provide some examples of the interviews Betsy has handled. Betsy also works with a list of Publicists that contact Betsy on a daily basis to set up appointments for their clients to be interviewed by Betsy. We have left the older information on how and why Betsy became a Talk Show Host.
