Episode 197: Thinking Celestial Through Grief and Loss with the Sister Connection

Apr 21, 2025
 

                     

 

 

 

In this special Sister Connection episode of the LDS Mental Health Podcast, we’re diving into what it really means to “Think Celestial”—especially in the midst of grief and heartache.

You’ll hear from faithful, resilient women who have walked the path of grief and loss and found light, growth, and healing by yoking themselves to the Savior. Their lived experiences bring a powerful perspective to the principles taught by President Nelson and other Church leaders about having an eternal mindset.

We’ll explore key themes from recent talks on “Thinking Celestial,” including:

  • How to shift perspective during trials

  • Why grief doesn’t define us, but our choices do

  • What it means to truly yoke ourselves to Jesus Christ for healing

If you’ve ever struggled to see the bigger picture during painful times, this episode will bring both comfort and insight. Tune in and feel the connection, hope, and testimony of sisters who’ve been there—and are choosing to Think Celestial through it all.
