Aloha! Welcome to the Grief and Happiness podcast. My name is Emily Thiroux Threatt, and I am your host. I am the author of Loving and Living Your Way Through Grief, The Grief and Happiness Handbook, and creator of Grief and Happiness Cards: Gentle Support for Dealing with Grief and Finding Happiness

My purpose with the Grief and Happiness Podcast is to demonstrate to people who are dealing with grief and loss that they can grieve and be happy at the same time. The wide variety of guests address the myriad of issues that arise with loss and the spectrum of how grief and happiness relate. After a loved one dies, often people say they will never be happy again. By covering thought-provoking topics like creativity, compassion, community, purpose, inner peace, strength, coping, surrendering, and resilience with authors, speakers, coaches, and friends, listeners find inspiration and confidence guiding them on their grief journey. Each week the podcast showcases an interview with an inspiring guest and an additional brief podcast with a message of support and comfort.

Anyone dealing with grief or loss can come to the Grief and Happiness podcast to find comfort, support, love, and happiness. You are welcome here to learn ways to live your best life.

By day, she serves as a Program Manager for large-scale Airport Capital Programs in Orlando; by calling, she bridges architectural precision with visionary artistry through her sketchbook and canvas. Fueled by a deep love of art history, travel, and the cosmic mysteries of the universe, her work explores themes of life, the afterlife, and the wonders that lie beyond. Her latest illustrations appear in Ghost Flower, a science fiction novel by her late husband William F. Merck II — for which she painted the cover and authored the companion journal. Originally from Arizona, she now calls Florida home.In this episode, Ksenia opens up about how grief became the doorway to profound purpose. After losing her husband Bill in March 2024, she channeled her loss into completing his lifelong dream — painting the cover of his science fiction novel Ghost Flower and authoring the Ghost Flower Companion Journal, a collection of illustrations and philosophical questions designed to deepen the reader's experience of the book. She shares how the project gave her direction at her most vulnerable, and how she believes Bill has remained a guiding presence every step of the way. Together, Ksenia and Emily explore the power of soul contracts, twin flames, and the idea that grief — when met with openness — can become the foundation for a meaningful new chapter.Connect with Ksenia J.
