I’ve known Dr. Daniel for several years. We have worked together on workshops and teaching courses. I’ve learned so much from her during our time together. In today’s interview, we discuss toxic theology and how it can complicate the dying and grief processes. We also discuss her incredible book, A Swan In Heaven. The audio version of the book has just been released on the sixteenth anniversary of her son Danny’s death.
