Lacie Brueckner and Kat Pendergast joined me to talk about death and dying and how to help kids through this tough subject.

 

Lacie and Kat are the authors of "Goodbye Bella," a book that helps children cope with the loss of a beloved pet. Our conversation leads into the importance of discussing death with children and provides valuable insights into how to navigate the grieving process, as well as ways to honor and remember those who have passed away.

 

Kat and Lacie share their personal experiences and the positive impact their book has had on families dealing with pet loss and other forms of grief. This episode highlights the significance of open conversations about death and the healing power of sharing memories and emotions with children.

 

You can find the book on Kat’s website at katssocks.com or on Amazon.
