My jaw dropped when viewing this talk. This is powerful stuff!!! I have lived a number of very devastating things. Mom passed from suicide when I was very young and last year I lost the closest person in my life. We were laughing , having fun on a trail in Washington State Oct. 8th 2022.. In a flash after hearing only one crack a tree killed her instantly five feet from where I was standing. There I was with my closest person on the trail and she passed instantly. Today Sept. 29th, 2023 I can honestly say that everything that Julia talked about happened to me. Yes I have light in my life again and am moving forward with my grief. I just realized last week in Whistler BC that I could stop talking about it and that I could change my picture in the frame. I am now ready to keep this in my heart and keep moving forward one day at a time. My picture now within that frame includes, light, love, connection, and hope. This is my picture forward and I'm going to live it authentically. Thank you for this valuable talk and I have included your words in my diary. I get to go back and re-read what you said. If someone in my life is pained and sad I will direct them to you talk. Sending you Love Sheila

I lost my sweet mother a month ago and it's been a rollacoster of emotion's, can't put how I feel into word's but your speech help me. Thank you P.S if you're going through grief and feel so alone even when you're in the company of people you're not alone, one day at a time. Sending you virtual hugs and my heart goes out to you.

It is so hard to loss someone we love. Thank you for letting me know it helped you. I

Lost a loved one today missing her terribly, nothing helps.

Thank you Julia.. I hope more people see this. I am saving this link to your video. It took 5 years just to feel I could have a different and hopeful thought take hold. I am sympathetic to those who can not escape a painful pattern of longing to see someone they love again. I've started to realize that you can't know what you just don't know yet. That life has more to offer as you let this moment be its own moment. Really love your 5 R's. Good luck to everyone on this path, you are certainly not alone.

Thank you so much for your comments and helping make sure as many people see this as possible. So many people feel the same way you and I did. I know the 5-Facet Diamond Framework can help them. It truly is life-changing. I'm so passionate and committed to sharing this with as many people as possible, I recently wrote a book about - "Move Forward Stronger" - that will be published on January 24, 2023. Thank you for sharing hope with others!

Wow...I mean WOW....I have seen over 5 TED talks on Grief and learned tiny things from them all But, BUT.... Your talk completely tore me down and, like a true drill sergeant, by the end set me down on stable ground I thought I would never ever find. I am so sorry you went through your journey, but in doing so you helped me find the shore, as I was drowning. God Bless you. I lost my wife of 35 years in January and I thought this was it, life is over. Now, thanks to you, I'm strong enough to stop being afraid, turn away from the shore, and swim toward the unknown. Leaving "It" on the wall" (If you you here in front of me I would give you a big hug.)

My brother passed 6 months ago and I'm still grieving. Thank you for this talk... I'm going to be trying this framework ❤

@@TheJJmags I'm sorry for the loss of your husband. I know there are no words that can bring you comfort so I hope there is something in the 5-Facet Diamond Framework that assures you there is something more beyond what you are currently feeling.

My huge loss came 1 month after you made this video. 12.-21 the worst month of my life & that was just the begginning of this horrible rollercoaster

Thank you for this framework Julia. My mother passed 15 years ago and while I have gone through the biggest chunks of my grieving procces and established a pretty solid foundation to move through grief, I wish I had some kind of framework and understanding when I was a child, just like what you are presenting here. Grateful for your share.

5 realizations 1) ReLive exhausting dizzying loop 2)Reflect..is there any other way to see my loss 6 or 9...more than one true or right way to see something=perspective 3)ReFrame....Loss...snapshot...make me feel awful frame Maybe...something good can come of this...could I help someone else When you change the frame around it ...YOU CHANGE 4) ReConnect...Life needs life...NOT JUST EXISTING 5)ReLease....WE MUST LET GO OF THE. ILLUSION OF THE CONTROL OF THE OUTCOME YOUR "IT"....doesnt have to be anything as bad as death.

So nice talking to you today. I really enjoyed listening to you. Thank you for your courage & for sharing. Sending you love Julia. 💜Lilianne😉

Wow, this is powerful.

Enjoyed this but I will not forget that she had a father that loved her dearly. She never forgot that in all her trials. It followed in her path even though she was stubborn in many choices. What about the people who do not have that father-love in their life? It is a different path.

I was traumatized since childhood after going to several viewings of dead family and friends. My folks would tell me to stop crying, "You're upsetting others." And when I couldn't, they'd remove me from the funeral. Now, whenever I've lost a loved one, I cry in private so as not to be judged by others.😢

Thank you for sharing your trauma with me. Please know you are not alone and crying is a natural response. I'm sorry you weren't allowed to express your emotions. I hope what my TEDx talk helps you. I talk about my similar experiences in my book "Move Forward Stronger." We should be allowed to express our emotions and not forced to repress them.
