  • We categorize grief with the loss of marriage, pregnancy or death of someone.

  • But there are some others too as much painful as divorce.

  • Erin facing the loss of graduation and couldn't meet clients during this pandemic.

  • Parents don't want upset children because they make them angry and bad parents.

  • Erin always advises patients that people suffering and grieving globally. People don't realize it.

  • We have to go to the mall picking up mask and sanitizer.

  • We losing freedom and so many things happening that we never imagined could happen.

  • If you have children like teenagers they are little edgy and irritated like others.

  • They lost graduation and studies during this COVID 19 and it's important to talk to them.

  • Children missing going to the mall and meeting friends.

  • Erin tries to be open to letting people share their experiences.

  • Inviting them from words like you are just 15 and how do you feel about this pandemic.

  • By sharing the experience we can learn a lot about people and their feelings.

  • Why people getting angry on social media?

  • Such a great question.

  • Erin lost a client and it's so hard for her to losing someone unexpectedly. 

  • She got really upset and it leads her to social media.

  • People want to reveal their feelings.

  • No one is around to listen to the world is so busy in itself.

  • People go to social media to complain about the things that they can't in real life.

Andrew Carnegie said that the first half of his life he will spend in making money and the second half in giving it away. He earned 40 billion dollars in the first half and in the latter half he gave it away. We...
