In this episode of Grief is a Sneaky B!tch, I was joined by my new friend and fellow social worker, Rachel Carnahan. As a social worker serving as part of a Pediatric Palliative Care Team for nearly a decade, Rachel explores what she has learned from accompanying parents as they endure the most excruciating experiences imaginable - the devastating illnesses and often death of their children. Her warmth and compassionate approach to her work show up throughout the interview as we discuss some of the common assumptions and misunderstanding of this particular type of loss. Rachel remains passionate about her work and curious to learn more about how we can all better support and accompany families through their grief journeys. This conversation reminded me of why I became a social worker in the first place.
