Grief on Purpose: How Laura Walton Found Power, Peace, and Purpose in the Pain
What if grief wasn’t something to fix—but something to feel, carry, and even grow through? In this powerful episode of Hard Beautiful Journey, I sit down with Laura Walton—licensed therapist, grief and trauma expert, and founder of Grief on Purpose—to explore how unthinkable loss led her to the work she's doing today. Laura shares how losing her father and partner cracked her open, what it means to grieve with intention, and how her relationship with grief has shifted after nearly two decades. We talk spirituality, somatic healing, the loneliness of grief, and how your relationship with a loved one can continue long after they’re gone. If you're grieving—or supporting someone who is—this episode is here to remind you: you're not alone, and you will survive this. 0:00 - Intro: Grief as a Beginning 2:24 - Laura’s Life Before Loss 5:01 - The Losses That Changed Everything 8:17 - What Grief Is (and Isn’t) 11:32 - Being Misunderstood in Grief 15:45 - Judgment & Silence Around Death 19:12 - Creating Grief on Purpose 22:38 - Evolving the Relationship with Grief 27:03 - Spirit Connection After Death 32:20 - Supporting Others Through Grief 36:01 - Using Your Voice 38:24 - Finding Your Tribe 41:33 - Yoga, Somatics & Grief in the Body 47:22 - What Society Gets Wrong About Grief 51:12 - Final Message for the Brokenhearted 56:20 - Gratitude + Gentle Close CONNECT WITH US: Tiff on Instagram → @iamtiffcarson Laura on Instagram → @grief.on.purpose Laura’s Website → www.griefonpurpose.com
