Life Changes - Grief, Paganism and the Goddess Temple

"It never gets any easier, but you become better able to cope with it. I still miss her. It's still, you know, every day, it's still awful, but I'm better able to cope. It gets better. It doesn't get easier, but it gets better."

In this episode of Life Changes, we chat with David about his experiences of grief, having been relatively recently widowed. David is also a pagan minister, and works in the prison service with offenders, having previously studied at The Goddess Temple to be a Priest of the Goddess. David was on one of the Borwick Hall Weekend events and is a lovely warm person to chat to, including how his journey of recovery had him cross paths with Adventure Solos.
