Interview with Cole James, President of the Grief Recovery Institute:

In this deeply personal episode of the Feel Free Again podcast, I sit down with Tammy Adams, who shares powerful insights about the transformative effects of addressing unresolved grief.

Tammy’s journey—from educator and HR professional to certified grief recovery specialist—deeply resonated with me, especially her candid reflections on overcoming repeated life patterns caused by unprocessed emotional pain.

Throughout our conversation, Tammy highlights the profound impact of grief recovery on breaking harmful cycles in relationships, career choices, and personal development.

One of the most impactful moments of our discussion was addressing the universal emotional toll taken by COVID-19, an event Tammy describes as a global grieving experience. Her clear and empathetic approach provides valuable tools and insights to process the unique losses we’ve collectively experienced, from trust and freedom to financial security and interpersonal relationships.
