About this listen

Grief is not an obstacle to healing — it is the healing. In this deeply compassionate episode of Numbness Paralysis – The PTSD Podcast, Olga Costa explores how grief becomes the body’s native language for love, loss, and transformation.

Through science, poetry, and lived experience, Olga guides listeners to see grief not as something to escape, but as something sacred — the body’s way of translating pain into meaning. This episode touches on the physiology of sorrow, the unspoken grief of trauma survivors, and how to give yourself permission to mourn what the world cannot see.

Gentle reflection, grounding tools, and a trauma-informed SWOT analysis help you navigate the waves of sorrow with compassion and awareness. Because when you allow yourself to grieve, you’re not falling apart — you’re learning to speak the language of your own soul.

🕊️ New episodes every Friday at 3:00 PM.

🎧 Stay safe, stay soft, and stay curious.
