About this listen

What if grief isn’t a problem to solve—but a threshold to cross? In this tender conversation, we explore how life’s in-between seasons quietly reshape us. This episode is for anyone navigating loss, identity shifts, aging, relationship changes, or inner uncertainty. Sharon Ann Rose reframes grief as a sacred gatekeeper—softening us into deeper alignment rather than hardening us into survival. Listeners will discover how unexpressed grief can surface as anger, exhaustion, or disconnection—and how gently turning toward it can restore compassion, clarity, and self-trust.


About the Guest:

Sharon Ann Rose is a mother, author, ceremonialist, and shamanic priestess devoted to restoring feminine wisdom. For over five decades, she has held space for women through grief, transition, and spiritual awakening. She is the author of Faces of the Mother.
