There is a well-known process for dealing with the loss of a loved one. It was written by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and David Kessler. It's called the five stages of grief. Denial. Anger. Bargaining. Depression. Acceptance. Sounds simple enough. Yet, there are myriad problems. How does one move through those five stages? What if you get stuck at anger? Or denial? Can the grief-stricken benefit from counseling? Or is it a lone journey?
Dr. Lucy Kalanithi is the widow of Dr. Paul Kalanithi, author of the internationally best-selling memoir WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR.
Dr. Kalanithi and the Wonder Media Network -- a female founded and led podcast network -- are launching a new podcast called Gravity. The podcast is being launched in late May.
In Gravity, Lucy and guests will share the literature, philosophies, and mantras that have helped them survive their hardest times, and prove life is still worth living. This unique interview style show will feature a poetry reading at the end of each episode.
Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine at Stanford University, young widow, and physician Dr. Lucy Kalanithi will explore how to find happiness in life's greatest challenges with the premiere of her new podcast, Gravity.
As the widow of Dr. Paul Kalanithi, author of the internationally best-selling memoir WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR, Dr. Kalanithi has come to see that suffering makes its home in the gap between our lived reality and the circumstances we’d wish for, instead. In each episode of Gravity, Dr. Kalanithi will explore a particular life struggle with guests who are facing it directly, sometimes personally and sometimes professionally – as thinkers, practitioners, activists, and leaders.
Gravity is about life's biggest challenges — and the stories we can tell to get ourselves through them. Life is both beautiful and terrible. Dr. Lucy Kalanithi has seen that: she is the widow of Dr. Paul Kalanithi, author of the internationally best-selling memoir, When Breath Becomes Air. As a primary care doctor raising a young child in the wake of her young husband’s death from cancer, Dr. Kalanithi has come to see that suffering makes its home in the gap between our lived reality and the circumstances we’d wish for, instead.
Gravity is about how to live in, or even narrow, that gap. For some people, life is upended in a single moment: a sudden diagnosis, an unexpected loss. For many, life has long been burdened by injustice, discrimination, or poverty. Hardship can come on insidiously, in the slow creep of loneliness or aging – or even globally, as with the individual and communal impacts of climate change. But we find commonality in deep questions that underpin the phenomenon of suffering: Do we accept or resist? Hold on or let go? Are our struggles connected? Is there meaning in the struggle?
In each episode of Gravity, host Dr. Lucy Kalanithi explores a particular life struggle with guests who are facing it directly, sometimes personally and sometimes professionally — as thinkers, practitioners, activists, and leaders. She and her guests share the literature, philosophies, art, beliefs and mantras that have helped them most in their hardest times. Their conversations help us understand the new and ancient stories we tell ourselves about the hardest things we face, and why those stories matter
Gravity’s first episode is set to launch May 27 and will kick off with an in-depth conversation about loneliness with Dr. Vivek Murthy, the 21st Surgeon General of the United States under the Biden administration.
