Breaking Through Grief's Timeline Myth with Ligia Houben

Breaking Through Grief's Timeline Myth with Ligia Houben

Grief doesn't follow a timeline. This powerful truth anchors our profound conversation with grief expert, author, and life transition coach Ligia Houben, who brings both professional expertise and personal experience to her work helping the bereaved navigate life's most challenging transitions.

Ligia shatters common misconceptions about grief, particularly the harmful belief that mourning should end after an arbitrary period. "Our love doesn't have a timeline," she explains, illuminating why grief naturally continues long after loss. Even years later, a special song or meaningful date can trigger powerful emotions – not because we're regressing, but because grief is recurrent, reflecting the eternal nature of love.

Drawing from her experience losing her father suddenly at age 12, Ligia developed the 11 Principles of Transformation, a comprehensive roadmap for those struggling with loss. These principles, which begin with "Accept your loss" and "Live your grief," emphasize the importance of acknowledging reality and validating emotions rather than suppressing them. The number 11 holds special significance – her father died on November 11th (11-11) – a synchronicity that confirmed for Ligia she was on the right path.

While discussing the famous stages of grief, Ligia offers a refreshing perspective: not everyone experiences all stages, and they rarely unfold linearly. Acceptance doesn't mean being "okay" with loss, but rather acknowledging reality and consciously choosing how to move forward. Through practical strategies like journaling and physical exercise, Ligia demonstrates how we can actively engage with grief, transforming overwhelming suffering into a place of honoring loved ones through love.

00:00:00.420 --> 00:00:08.390
Welcome to the Living the Dream Podcast with Curveball, if you believe you can achieve.

00:00:08.390 --> 00:00:27.859
Welcome to the Living the Dream with Curveball Podcast, a show where I interview guests that teach, motivate and inspire, and a few guests that teach, motivate and inspire.

00:00:27.859 --> 00:00:37.063
Today, I am joined by grief expert, author and life transition coach, leah Huben.

00:00:37.063 --> 00:00:48.655
Leah has four books focused on loss and healing, and she is the creator of the 11 principles of transformation.

00:00:48.655 --> 00:00:57.564
So we're going to be talking to her about grief and about her 11 principles and everything else that she's up to.

00:00:57.564 --> 00:00:59.128
So, leah, thank you so much for joining me today.

00:01:01.011 --> 00:01:02.314
Thank you so much, curtis.

00:01:02.314 --> 00:01:04.146
It is an honor to be in your program.

00:01:04.146 --> 00:01:14.727
Why don't you start off by telling everybody a little bit about yourself?

00:01:14.727 --> 00:01:15.670
Okay, my name is Ligia Ruben.

00:01:15.689 --> 00:01:34.355
I am from Nicaragua, I live in Miami, florida, for a long time, and my passion, my mission in life is to help the bereaved, to help the griever, that person that is facing the loss of a loved one and don't know what to do.

00:01:34.355 --> 00:01:44.135
Because sometimes that happens, curtis, that we have this huge pain, this huge loss, and we just don't know how to continue.

00:01:44.135 --> 00:02:09.481
And we just don't know how to continue.

00:02:09.481 --> 00:02:10.584
We just don't know how to deal with so many emotions.

00:02:10.584 --> 00:02:13.691
And the reason that I do what I do with so much love is because I had the experience of losing my father when I was 12 years old.

00:02:13.691 --> 00:02:15.093
I was living in Nicaragua and it was a sudden death.

00:02:15.093 --> 00:02:21.805
So that's what inspired me to eventually study psychology and specialize in grief, become a thanatologist, which is the study of death and dying, and it is so close to my heart.

00:02:21.805 --> 00:02:24.588
That's why I say you know that I do it with all my heart.

00:02:27.653 --> 00:02:35.562
Well, you definitely do, and I was just going to ask you about that thanatologist, but you answered that.

00:02:35.562 --> 00:02:44.034
So, to start off, what is the biggest misconception of grief that people have that you hear when you meet with your clients?

00:02:48.728 --> 00:02:50.758
Thank you for that insightful question.

00:02:50.758 --> 00:02:58.460
The greatest challenge that my clients have and that people assume is that grief has a timeline, that, okay, we know when we start grieving.

00:02:58.460 --> 00:03:09.260
Well, actually, sometimes we start grieving before we lose our loved one, because maybe that person is going through an illness.

00:03:09.260 --> 00:03:25.792
So we start having a grief because we're losing that person the way we know them and we may start experiencing what we call anticipatory grief, that is, before the actual loss happens, the person dies.

00:03:25.792 --> 00:03:27.995
So we start even before.

00:03:27.995 --> 00:03:42.723
So that is a huge misconception with a timeline and, for example, that after a certain time you should be good by now, you should be feeling this way by now, you should be behaving this way by now.

00:03:42.723 --> 00:04:01.775
So the griever has a huge stress, has a huge challenge because they say well, my family, they don't allow me to grieve, they don't allow me to talk about my loved one because they say that now it's been a year already.

00:04:01.775 --> 00:04:14.954
You know when we say like a year already, and it couldn't be farther from the truth, because our love doesn't have a timeline, love is eternal.

00:04:14.954 --> 00:04:18.971
When we lose a loved one, love stays with us.

00:04:18.971 --> 00:04:25.894
So grief is an expression that we are missing that person that we love so much.

00:04:25.894 --> 00:04:29.911
So that's why it does not have a timeline.

00:04:30.819 --> 00:04:34.750
What happens with grief is that it moves.

00:04:34.750 --> 00:04:38.846
It's not static, it's at the beginning.

00:04:38.846 --> 00:04:46.273
It's, you know, those acute, acute expressions of grief when we feel that huge tsunami.

00:04:46.273 --> 00:04:52.267
You know that comes to us and then we, little by little, start navigating the process.

00:04:52.267 --> 00:05:07.281
However, even after years that we have lost a loved one, suddenly, maybe a special date, curtis, or maybe we are driving and we hear a special song, and maybe we lost a loved one 10 years before.

00:05:07.281 --> 00:05:12.814
But that comes to our heart and we remember and we long for that person.

00:05:12.814 --> 00:05:20.434
So that's why we say in my field of grief that grief is recurrent.

00:05:20.434 --> 00:05:23.348
Dr Rosenblatt talks about that.

00:05:23.348 --> 00:05:24.865
It is recurrent.

00:05:30.471 --> 00:05:31.535
It happens from time to time.

00:05:31.535 --> 00:05:39.339
Well, you also are the creator of the 11 principles of transformation, so tell us what those principles are and why you decided to create them.

00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:48.615
Thank you, because those principles are so close to my heart, are so sacred, and I'll tell you how they came to be.

00:05:48.615 --> 00:05:54.132
My first book it's written to the memory of my father.

00:05:54.132 --> 00:05:58.471
It's called Transform your Loss your Guide to Strength and Hope.

00:05:58.471 --> 00:06:08.514
And when I wrote that book, I talk about what losses are, because a loss is not only when we lose a loved one.

00:06:08.514 --> 00:06:21.454
We may go through divorce, a breakup, we may have loss of health, loss of hope, loss of a job, transitions that are painful.

00:06:21.454 --> 00:06:22.334
Those are losses.

00:06:22.334 --> 00:06:27.841
So I talk about what losses are that are painful.

00:06:27.841 --> 00:06:28.423
No, those are losses.

00:06:28.423 --> 00:06:31.511
So I talk about what losses are and also I talk about the manifestations of grief, because it's not only emotionally.

00:06:31.511 --> 00:06:44.463
It is not only when we are sad or we may feel guilty, which is one of the most common emotions in grief when we may be angry, all those emotions.

00:06:44.463 --> 00:06:47.831
So I talk about all that, how we express grief.

00:06:47.831 --> 00:06:55.254
We express it also physically, socially, emotionally and spiritually.

00:06:55.254 --> 00:07:13.372
And then that book, transform your Loss your Guide to Strength and Hope, which is the first book you know about grief, has 60 real stories of losses, Half of them 30, are studies about the loss of a loved one.

00:07:13.372 --> 00:07:19.612
And the other ones, as I said, different losses, including the loss of a pet, you know, an animal companion that is so strong as well.

00:07:19.612 --> 00:07:34.473
So, but when I had all those things put together, I was like I want to give something to the reader, I want to give them tools to start, you know, help them process that loss.

00:07:34.473 --> 00:07:45.927
And that's when I started writing the principles, started writing, them writing, and then I stopped and I counted them and there were 11.

00:07:45.927 --> 00:07:56.495
And that touched my heart tremendously because my father died on 11-11, november 11th 1971.

00:07:56.495 --> 00:08:04.790
So I was so touched by that because I didn't plan them, they just happened to be and the principles are perennial.

00:08:04.790 --> 00:08:16.434
Like I did not invent, you know, the principles, curtis, what I did was I put them together as a roadmap.

00:08:16.434 --> 00:08:36.503
If you will Remember that at the beginning I told you that sometimes people, when they are going through loss, people when they are going through loss, sometimes they don't know what to do, they may be confused, they may feel that it is so surreal because it happened to be, and I'll tell you a little bit about that later.

00:08:36.503 --> 00:08:37.924
And so that's how they came to be.

00:08:37.924 --> 00:08:44.410
So I introduced the system as I call it, the system as I call it, the methodology, the roadmap.

00:08:44.410 --> 00:08:46.734
I introduced it in that book.

00:08:47.514 --> 00:08:58.062
So that was the beginning, and then those principles have evolved, not only being introduced in the book.

00:08:58.062 --> 00:09:08.869
I registered them as a trademark and I offered them as seminars, workshops to facilitate groups with them, and that works beautiful with the principals.

00:09:08.869 --> 00:09:19.134
I also offer it as an online program and I have it in English and Spanish because that's my native language, spanish.

00:09:19.134 --> 00:09:35.109
So they are very close to me and what touches my heart is that people who have come to the seminars to have, who know, you know, p-e-s-i, that they provide continuing education credits for mental health professionals.

00:09:35.109 --> 00:10:08.004
So I traveled with them and we were in more than 100 cities here and it was nationwide, and each time that I presented it was a seminar transforming grief and loss, and the seminar was based on the principles.

00:10:08.004 --> 00:10:20.461
So these mental health professionals, they have used them with their clients and I have received, you know, emails and comments that how they are helping their clients.

00:10:20.461 --> 00:10:24.283
So for me, curtis, that that means the world to me.

00:10:26.926 --> 00:10:29.293
Absolutely, and congratulations on that.

00:10:30.586 --> 00:10:31.731
Thank you yeah.

00:10:32.504 --> 00:10:35.654
Can you go through the stages of grief for the listeners?

00:10:37.827 --> 00:10:38.892
For the principals you mean.

00:10:39.765 --> 00:10:55.677
No, the stages of grief and the stages of grief, very well known and famous because Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, you know, she introduced them.

00:10:55.677 --> 00:11:14.850
And the thing is that in my field we have come to realize, because she even said it herself, you know, that the stages were not supposed to be linear like how people have taken them and were not supposed.

00:11:14.850 --> 00:11:18.696
You know, not everybody experiences the different stages.

00:11:18.696 --> 00:11:28.832
I would say, based on my experience, that denial, which is the first one, would be the most prominent.

00:11:28.832 --> 00:11:38.894
You know that happens because people they have a very, very hard time accepting.

00:11:38.894 --> 00:11:41.779
You know that the person died.

00:11:41.779 --> 00:11:49.049
And now that we're talking about this, what do you think about acceptance, curtis, because that's the last one?

00:11:49.049 --> 00:11:51.894
You know we have anger, bargaining, depression.

00:11:51.894 --> 00:11:56.333
But what do you think about denial and about acceptance?

00:11:56.333 --> 00:12:05.676
Because I don't know your story but you know, if we can have it like a conversation, what do you think is the difference and what is difficult from one and the other?

00:12:06.839 --> 00:12:13.708
Well, I think denial, you know, once you first lose something or somebody that you really love, it's like this isn't real.

00:12:13.708 --> 00:12:14.450
I'm gonna wake up.

00:12:14.450 --> 00:12:15.269
This is a joke.

00:12:15.269 --> 00:12:16.390
This is a bad dream.

00:12:16.390 --> 00:12:21.095
Somebody's gonna give me a call and say, oh, we were just joking with you and we can just move on.

00:12:21.095 --> 00:12:23.716
But acceptance is okay.

00:12:23.716 --> 00:12:27.080
Even though I don't want this to be real, it is.

00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:30.442
And now I just got to figure out how to pick up the pieces and move forward from here.

00:12:30.544 --> 00:12:33.125
And now I just got to figure out how to pick up the pieces and move forward from here.

00:12:33.125 --> 00:12:35.726
Wow, you said it so beautifully and it's amazing.

00:12:35.726 --> 00:12:36.668
Thank you for that.

00:12:36.668 --> 00:12:42.649
It's amazing how you made the distinction between denial, move on and acceptance.

00:12:42.649 --> 00:13:22.513
Move forward, because, yes, denial is natural, is human, is this kind of space that we have, you know, sometimes for our own grasping, you know the reality, and when it's too painful, denial is kind of a buffer, you know, for us to then starting, little by little, to grasping the reality and when we are able, well, but, for example, not everybody bargains, you know, not everybody gets depressed, you know, and that's the thing that we want to make sure that not everybody experiences them.

00:13:22.653 --> 00:13:33.719
However, when we come into acceptance, acceptance itself can be a process, and that is actually my first principle.

00:13:33.719 --> 00:14:03.711
My first principle is accept your loss, and the reason that I wanted that to be the first principle is because it's called you know the system, the 11 principles of transformation, 11 Principles of Transformation, and if we want to transform something, if we are going through pain, if you stay in denial, how are we going to even consider transforming that?

00:14:03.711 --> 00:14:05.770
You know that process of grief?

00:14:05.770 --> 00:14:10.672
No, so, because when we talk about acceptance, it's not that.

00:14:10.672 --> 00:14:14.993
Yeah, okay, you know it happened, you're okay, you know this doesn't matter.

00:14:14.993 --> 00:14:17.953
No, it's grasping the reality.

00:14:17.953 --> 00:14:20.514
This is what happened to me.

00:14:20.514 --> 00:14:26.615
Now, what am I going to do with what happened to me?

00:14:26.615 --> 00:14:27.635
So that's a decision we make.

00:14:27.635 --> 00:14:28.475
What am I going to do now?

00:14:28.475 --> 00:14:29.557
So that would a decision we make.

00:14:29.557 --> 00:14:30.956
What am I going to do now?

00:14:30.956 --> 00:14:32.777
So that would be acceptance.

00:14:33.476 --> 00:14:47.921
And in my principles, the second principle is live your grief, because when I say accept your loss, I don't, my intention is not that you're going to say, okay, accept your loss, okay, that's it.

00:14:47.921 --> 00:14:48.321
And then I continue.

00:14:48.321 --> 00:14:49.520
No, you're accepting your loss, okay, that's it.

00:14:49.520 --> 00:14:50.421
And then I continue.

00:14:50.421 --> 00:14:52.581
No, you're accepting your loss.

00:14:52.581 --> 00:14:56.582
Okay, this has happened, it is painful, it happened.

00:14:56.582 --> 00:15:21.453
So, because I believe so much in processing grief that's why I call my latest book Allow Me to Live my Grief and Heal from the Inside Out Then the second principle is precisely that one Live your grief, so people can validate their emotions, they can validate their pain.

00:15:21.453 --> 00:15:27.796
They do not suppress it, they do not ignore it, but they validate it.

00:15:27.796 --> 00:15:33.918
So I think that's extremely important to validate how we feel.

00:15:36.706 --> 00:15:45.019
So when you went through your personal story of grief, you know how did you go through the stages and how did you deal with everything that you had to deal with.

00:16:11.865 --> 00:16:31.274
Well, yes, when I dealt with my father's death, which was my most significant when I was young, when I was a child, because I experienced the loss of Now, when my father died, because it was sudden and he died actually in Miami, at a hospital, because he was not feeling well and he was there, but the day that he had been discharged, you know, to leave the hospital is when he died in his heart.

00:16:31.274 --> 00:16:41.726
So it was a surprise, curtis, and it was horrible, it was really painful.

00:16:41.726 --> 00:16:44.875
So, yes, denial, I remember, I remember of the denial of I cannot believe it he's leaving the hospital today.

00:16:44.875 --> 00:16:57.953
Because, in my case, I was in school and I talk about my story in the book Transforming Laws because I told you it has 60 stories, one of them is mine and I was in school.

00:16:57.953 --> 00:17:09.713
I was in a Catholic school, a religious school, with the nuns, and Mother Superior gave me the news, you know, that my father had died and I remember telling her cannot be, he's being discharged today from the hospital.

00:17:09.713 --> 00:17:13.430
But then, you know, she told father had died and I remember telling her cannot be, he's being discharged today from the hospital.

00:17:13.430 --> 00:17:16.480
But then you know she told me that it had happened.

00:17:16.579 --> 00:17:20.829
So I experienced denial and none of the rest.

00:17:20.829 --> 00:17:24.897
You know, not bargaining or anger, no depression.

00:17:24.897 --> 00:17:30.439
I was sad but not depressed, and at the end, of course, acceptance.

00:17:30.439 --> 00:17:34.306
Yeah, but again, it's because not everybody experienced this status.

00:17:34.306 --> 00:17:38.547
No, so, but that's what happened back then.

00:17:38.547 --> 00:17:55.336
Now, not on purpose, not saying okay, I'm going to apply principle one Now, principle two, no, it's just that they live in me.

00:17:55.336 --> 00:18:09.596
So when I experienced her loss, which was very painful as well because we were super, very close she was my father and mother for 48 years it was really painful.

00:18:09.596 --> 00:18:12.193
Still, I was able.

00:18:12.193 --> 00:18:21.330
You know, I have been able, because you know, as we talk about grief, I have been able to navigate it from a place of peace, from a place of love.

00:18:21.330 --> 00:18:34.821
That's huge, because that's why I say so much and I believe it that we can choose to move from a place of suffering to a place of love.

00:18:38.030 --> 00:18:43.711
Okay, well, tell the listeners about any upcoming projects that you're working on that people need to be aware of.

00:18:45.273 --> 00:18:45.795
Thank you.

00:18:45.795 --> 00:18:55.546
Well, as I said, I have my online program in English and Spanish and right now is self-paced.

00:18:55.546 --> 00:19:02.199
What I want to do is to do another program that it will be also with me.

00:19:02.199 --> 00:19:07.226
You know, a 12-week program, curtis, that I will be with a person, with a group.

00:19:07.226 --> 00:19:27.080
It will be like you know the platform.

00:19:27.080 --> 00:19:28.481
The self-paced is there included.

00:19:28.481 --> 00:19:41.630
It will be like you know, to train people to use, you know, to certify them under the umbrella of the 11 principles so they can also use them with their clients.

00:19:41.630 --> 00:19:44.680
So I am creating this platform.

00:19:45.269 --> 00:19:50.137
Also, I want to create an online program for the book.

00:19:50.137 --> 00:19:59.700
Allow me to live my grief and heal from the inside out when the person is in that acute stage of grief that is acute.

00:19:59.700 --> 00:20:02.064
So I would love to do that.

00:20:02.064 --> 00:20:10.843
First, you know the person that, to go deeper and then to move forward into the transformation and move into the 11 principles.

00:20:10.843 --> 00:20:21.575
So I have this, this ideas, in mind, and because I believe that it's important that we have the conversation and that's why.

00:20:21.575 --> 00:20:26.257
That's why you know being in your podcast, which is amazing.

00:20:26.257 --> 00:20:27.976

How did you come up with your name, the name of your you want to share with me.

00:20:31.922 --> 00:20:33.250
How did you come up with your name, the name of your podcast?

00:20:33.890 --> 00:20:43.902
Well, the name Curveball was given to me by my best friend, Sean Davis, back in junior high and I used that as my hip hop artist name and it stuck with me.

00:20:43.902 --> 00:20:46.516
So I was like, hey, living the dream with Curveball.

00:20:48.280 --> 00:20:48.781
I love it.

00:20:48.781 --> 00:20:51.115
I love it because it is so real right.

00:20:51.615 --> 00:20:52.116
Absolutely.

00:20:52.778 --> 00:20:54.122
Yeah, absolutely yes.

00:20:55.289 --> 00:21:00.099
Why don't you throw out your website contact info so people can keep up with everything that you're up to?

00:21:01.321 --> 00:21:02.443
Okay, thank you.

00:21:02.443 --> 00:21:05.279
Well, I am present in social media.

00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:09.501
I am in Instagram and Facebook, tiktok, linkedin.

00:21:09.501 --> 00:21:25.902
My website is I'm going to spell it out because of my name it's LigiaHubencom L-I-G-I-A-H-O-U-B, as in boy E-Ncom.

00:21:25.902 --> 00:21:30.346
That's my website and Ligia underscore Huben.

00:21:30.346 --> 00:21:36.153
Instagram, facebook, ligia Huben, and I am very active.

00:21:36.976 --> 00:21:42.875
Oh, I want to say something important for your public that I have a podcast.

00:21:42.875 --> 00:21:43.637
It's audio.

00:21:43.637 --> 00:21:49.656
So soon, I hope, curtis, I'm going to be doing what you're doing and I would love to have you as a guest.

00:21:49.656 --> 00:22:06.001
I would like to start, you know, having interviews as well, like videos, but right now it's only an audio and the name it's bilingual Spanish and English and it's called Transformando el Duelo Transforming Grief.

00:22:06.001 --> 00:22:10.741
So it's the same message English and Spanish.

00:22:11.131 --> 00:22:18.003
They are short messages, between six, seven, eight minutes to 15.

00:22:18.003 --> 00:22:20.317
So they are short, to the point.

00:22:20.317 --> 00:22:26.002
So I have like the different titles and I already have more than 100.

00:22:26.002 --> 00:22:27.856
So I am super excited with that.

00:22:27.856 --> 00:22:33.622
So it's like, based on the topic that you want to dig in, you can choose.

00:22:33.622 --> 00:22:41.112
You know what I am talking about and then you just go in because I have titled each one of them so you can see them.

00:22:41.112 --> 00:22:49.518
Okay, so that is something that I have done for the community and I am very, very happy to be sharing with you.

00:22:49.518 --> 00:23:00.753
And also I have a YouTube channel where I give short messages and about grief, of course, and I also give some messages about personal growth.

00:23:03.560 --> 00:23:06.695
All right, and yes, I would definitely love to be a guest on your show.

00:23:08.531 --> 00:23:10.538
Thank you Beautiful.

00:23:10.538 --> 00:23:11.280
Appreciate it.

00:23:11.930 --> 00:23:15.756
No problem, and listeners, that website will be in the show notes.

00:23:15.756 --> 00:23:17.919
Close us out with some final thoughts.

00:23:17.919 --> 00:23:42.040
Maybe, if that was something I forgot to talk about, that you would like to touch on, or any final thoughts you have for the listeners about grief, that let's remember that inside of us we have those amazing resources that can help us Be with your grief.

00:23:42.101 --> 00:23:43.484
Let's connect with our grief.

00:23:43.484 --> 00:23:45.148
Do not ignore it.

00:23:45.148 --> 00:23:46.711
Stay present with it.

00:23:46.711 --> 00:23:59.465
Write, you know, that's something that helps a lot when we put our thoughts to the paper, because, based on how we think, we feel and based on how we feel, we act.

00:23:59.465 --> 00:24:01.815
So grief is active.

00:24:01.815 --> 00:24:10.163
Grief is active Depends what we do To talk about it, to express, not to suppress, emotions.

00:24:10.163 --> 00:24:12.006
Write about exercises.

00:24:12.006 --> 00:24:12.292
It's a huge one.

00:24:12.292 --> 00:24:12.428
It's a huge one, curtis.

00:24:12.428 --> 00:24:12.461
It emotions.

00:24:12.461 --> 00:24:12.603
Write about exercises.

00:24:12.603 --> 00:24:13.589
It's a huge one.

00:24:13.589 --> 00:24:14.996
It's a huge one, curtis.

00:24:14.996 --> 00:24:24.680
It has helped me a lot because when we move, when we change our physical state, we also change our emotional state.

00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:41.222
So always remember that you can do something about your grief, your loss, and keep in mind, always keep in mind you can choose to move from a place of suffering to a place of honoring with love.

00:24:43.431 --> 00:24:44.934
