The 2024 Cost of Dying Report by empathy came out recently, and it is chock-full of eye-opening statistics about the effects of losing a loved one broken down by varying demographic groups.

The average duration of work impacts for executors was 19 months. What do you think about these statistics? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Let’s talk… Do you feel out of touch with your loved ones, or are you a little out of sorts in yourself because you haven’t been out and about as much as normal? Perhaps the summer left you wondering if it might be possible to live differently or maybe external factors have changed your life in some way. You aren’t alone. I have helped many individuals who, like you, were questioning themselves and their lives perhaps through: • Experiencing a bereavement • A relationship break-up • Retirement/redundancy • Caring for a family member • Becoming a parent • Receiving a life-changing diagnosis • Surviving a life-altering event Taking the first step and starting a conversation might literally be life-changing. I offer walking and talking therapy sessions which have helped many clients. Being in green spaces and places with fresh air and the rhythm of walking is soothing and healing. Adding in talking therapy to walking is extra potent and transformative in helping you to discover a ‘new you’. To find out more, please visit: https://lnkd.in/dxDqJMXW
