Dr Lucy Hone is one of the world’s leading voices on grief and resilience.
She shares her heartbreaking story of losing her 12-year-old daughter, Abi - and how that unimaginable loss shaped her work in resilience psychology, and her mission to help others navigate grief in all its forms.
We talk about why grief isn’t just about death, but about any unwanted change we’re forced to endure… why so many of us struggle with “grief literacy”… and how honest conversations about loss can help people breathe again.
Watch or listen to the new episode of Between Two Beers now, wherever you get your podcasts!

If you’re going through a painful life change right now, I want you to know this…
Life is unfair, brutal and unpredictable. None of us get spared. But when the worst happens, we still have a choice – surrender to it, or slowly learn how to carry it and keep living. You don’t need to do it perfectly. You just need to begin. 🌤

Now that I read this, I want to add one more!
Yes it lasts longer than most people think, BUT you won’t grieve forever.
You WILL learn to live with it. Somehow.
So do one thing today to edge towards the #BetterDaysAhead we all so crave.

We often talk about what grief takes from us, but rarely about what it can reveal.
In this clip, Dr Lucy Hone shares how grief can bring us face to face with parts of ourselves we may never have known existed.
Our strength, our ability to adapt and perhaps a deeper understanding of what really matters to us.
Of course, none of this takes away from the pain of loss, and we shouldn’t feel pressured to find something positive in our suffering.
But I found Lucy’s perspective particularly interesting. Sometimes the experiences we would never have chosen can change the way we understand ourselves.
🎧 My conversation with Dr Lucy Hone is now available on Inside-Out Connections.

What a month it’s been, writers festivals, conferences, workshops and weddings as well as some other behind the scenes crisp eating and dress browsing.
October is always my busiest month as a speaker so massive thx to all the clients who booked me and everyone who joined us.
Sharing my research and stories and hearing all of yours too is just the best. 🙏🏼

Can we all stop pretending that life’s a dream please?!
Having said that, I’m a big believer that even on the hardest days, there are moments worth noticing. Keep looking, seeking them out, hunting them down and letting them in 🧡💛❤️

I’m @drlucyhone and I’m coming to the @bondipavilionofficial to run my half day strengths-based resilience workshop in November.
Thx to @waverleycouncil for sponsoring this event and @gertrudeandalice for all their ongoing support of my work /books etc.
I’m looking forward to being back in the #bondibeach community.
Coming from Christchurch I've lived through years of earthquakes, the mosque shooting and, having lost our beautiful 12 yo daughter in a tragic car accident, I know grief. More than I ever imagined. 💔❤️💔
I’m known for helping people find hope and ways to cope with tough times - and im all about being real, raw and not pretending I have all the answers but giving some time n space to face the hard stuff.
Because there really are ways of thinking, acting n being that help - they won’t remove all the pain from loss, but they WILL help. That I CAN promise you 🩷🩵💛. I’ve been there. I know.
See my bio for tickets and see you there I hope. And bring a friend too! x

People often ask me what resilient people do differently when life gets really hard.
After years spent researching resilience, and having to put that research into practice myself, one thing I know for sure is that resilient people aren’t somehow immune to life’s difficulties.
They still struggle. They get overwhelmed. They have days when everything feels too much too.
Resilience isn’t about being strong all the time and it’s not a fixed trait you either have or don’t have. It’s not dished out at birth but something to build, in the everyday moments when we choose to keep going.
It’s about learning what helps us cope, what makes things harder, and where to focus our energy so we can stay in the game.
Perhaps most importantly, it’s about remembering that even when life is really hard, there can still be glimmers of good, meaningful connections and laughter too.
You don’t have to wait until everything is okay to start living again.
You can have a hard life and keep moving towards #BDA at the same time.
Which of these strategies resonates most with you? Or what else has helped you?

Does grief really last forever?
It’s something we hear all the time. But it’s not quite what my research tells us.
Someone asked me recently whether it was normal for their grief to have changed in the six years since their beautiful mum died.
My answer? Absolutely.
Grief changes over time. And for most people, the intense pain of loss does become easier to live with.
Not necessarily because the pain itself shrinks, but because our lives gradually grow around that loss.
We build new experiences, relationships, routines and memories. And, as our lives grow, the pain of our loss can begin to feel relatively smaller.
That doesn’t mean we stop loving or missing the person who died. Or that grief won’t catch us off guard at times - even years later.
But grief won’t feel like it does today six months or six years from now. It changes. We change. We learn to live with it somehow.
I think that’s a really important message of hope for anyone wondering whether life will ever feel easier again. 💙

Nobody teaches us how to manage difficult emotions. Yet we all have them.
We can't always control how we feel, but we CAN learn better ways to respond. These small acts are powerful ways to shift your emotions: stepping outside ☀️, changing the soundtrack 🎶, or putting your hands in warm water 🚿are all hugely effective.
Different things help different people at different times. Give yourself permission to experiment and see what works for you.
To give you more ideas, I've put together a free Sensory Toolkit, full of practical ways to soothe yourself using your senses.
Comment KIT below and I'll send you the download. 💛
