Grief – Your timeline, your experience and your story

In this heartfelt episode of Tendrils of Grief, we welcome Jillene Gallatin, whose journey through grief began at the tender age of 14 when she lost her mother to suicide. At a time when grief resources were scarce—especially for teenagers—Jillene was left to navigate unimaginable loss on her own. That life-altering experience became the catalyst for her lifelong dedication to grief advocacy and mental wellness. Now an ordained pastor in the ELCA since 2001, Jillene brings deep spiritual insight and compassion to her work as a certified 300-hour yoga teacher specializing in Grief Yoga and as a Grief, Loss, and End of Life Coach. She’s on a mission to build supportive communities that honor emotional healing and break the silence around grief and mental health. Join us as Jillene shares her story, her tools for healing, and her unwavering commitment to helping others move forward in grief with grace, support, and connection.
