To Grief With Love: A Conversation on Loss, Love, and Finding Meaning

Gerlinda Stella Season 3 Episode 6

To Grief With Love: A Conversation on Loss, Love, and Finding Meaning – S3 E6 | Divine Style Podcast

Hosted by Gerlinda Stella – Psychic Medium, Personal Stylist & Self-Love Coach

Episode Overview:

Join me, Gerlinda Stella, for a deeply moving conversation with my dear friend Zoe Strickland, an incredible woman whose journey through grief has become a beacon of love and connection for others. 

After losing her beloved son Elliot to suicide, Zoe began a profoundly personal healing path that led her to create the book To Grief With Love, a tender collection of poetry and art that speaks directly to the heart of loss.

In this episode, Zoe opens up about her journey through grief, her connection to spirit, and how creativity became her lifeline. This conversation is an invitation to hold space for sorrow, to honour the sacredness of love that never ends, and to recognise the signs that spirit offers us when we’re ready to see.

In today’s episode, we explore:

  • The Grief Journey: Zoe shares the story of her son Elliot, and the early days of navigating unimaginable loss.
  • Creating ‘To Grief With Love’: How journalling and doodling evolved into a healing book and a heart-led offering for others.
  • Suicide, Silence & Love: We discuss the taboo, the pain, and the need for more open-hearted conversations around suicide.
  • Signs from Spirit: Zoe’s connection with Elliot from beyond, and how spirit continues to guide her.
  • Walking Through the Darkness: The messy, beautiful, non-linear process of healing and how love lights the way forward.

This episode is for anyone who has loved deeply and lost, who is walking with grief, or who simply wants to understand how spirit holds us even in our darkest hours. Zoe’s story is both heartbreaking and hope-filled, and I’m so honoured to share her with you.
