Peeling back the heartache with Grief educator and coach Suzanne Jabour

Conversations With Pearl

I had the honor of sitting down with the remarkable Suzanne Jabbour, a fellow traveler on the path of loss and an inspiring grief educator. Together, we peeled back the layers of our own heartaches, revealing the raw and real experiences of losing our beloved sons. Suzanne's artistic and gifted Ben, and my dear Matthew, whose life was tragically cut short, are the catalysts for our mission to bring grief into the light.We delved into the necessity of open conversations about grief, the profound signs that our loved ones are still with us, and the crucial support needed in the early stages of loss. Our stories are not just tales of sorrow, but beacons of hope, reminding us all that honoring our loved ones keeps their memory vibrantly alive.For those navigating the delicate balance of grief and work, Suzanne offers invaluable insights into creating compassionate workplaces. Her masterclass is a treasure trove of wisdom for individuals and organizations alike. And for anyone seeking a personal touch, Suzanne's one-on-one sessions are a sanctuary for healing.I also shared the comfort I found in the kindness of friends and acquaintances, a testament to the power of simply reaching out. A phone call, a thoughtful card—these gestures can be a lifeline in moments of despair.As we wrapped up our heartfelt exchange, Suzanne and I pondered a powerful question from the "better questions, better life" cards: "What if you lived your life from love instead of fear every day?" I invite you to reflect on this with us and share your thoughts.Thank you for allowing us to share our journey with you. Your support means the world to us, and I hope our conversation offers a glimmer of understanding and solace.
