How To Support A Friend Who Is Suffering From The Pandemic
Here’s Exactly What To Say and Do When Life is Awful and Unfair to the People You Love
Over the past year, I’ve had friends get divorced, relapse, and lose loved ones. I’ve had family members break down because of mental health issues. I’ve witnessed successful entrepreneurs get their whole businesses wiped out and suffer in silence.
What is happening around the world is terrible and heartbreaking. This is why it was crucial for me to learn how to better support my loved ones during their times of crisis.
I came across the book, There is No Good Card For This: What To Say and Do When Life is Scary, Awful, and Unfair to People You Love by Kelsey Crowe and Emily McDowell, after hearing Emily speak at a conference called World Domination Summit.
I absolutely loved her talk and was thrilled to read the book when it finally came out. The book had so much nuanced information and practical tools that helped me support the people I cared most about.
If you’d like to better show up for your loved ones, let’s dive in. ❤️
