In this episode, Dana Daugherty invites her guest Reverend Angela Farrar Small to explore intergenerational grief and the unique position clergy are in when navigating grief in their congregations. Rev. Angela discusses how responses to grief and trauma are passed down within families and the negative impact of platitudes on grief. She shares why platitudes come up, and healthier ways we can acknowledge grief and respond instead. Rev. Angela is a licensed clinical social worker who was a pastor of a small congregation of elders. She has worked in hospice, in HIV disease care, and counseling individuals living with chronic conditions and their caregivers, including families impacted by dementia. Rev. Angela has a private practice and is newly focused on pivoting to spiritual care and spiritual trauma healing as it connects to mental health.

In this episode, Dana Daugherty and her guest Averry Cox continue to talk about Averry's experience of grief as a child of a parent who struggles with alcohol dependence, or what is commonly known as alcohol abuse. Averry discovered much of this stemmed from intergenerational trauma that was ever present in her family lineage. As a biracial neurodivergent therapist, writer, and author, Averry talks with us about how her relationship with her mother impacts and shapes her worldview, and ways this particular type of grief shows up in her everyday life.
