The New Model and Grief and Loss

The New Model and Grief and Loss
Kathryn interviews founder and CEO of TRUE Model Management Dale Noelle. Plus-size models are currently making huge waves in the modeling industry breaking down the stereotypical ideals of beauty. Noelle, formerly one of the fashion industry’s most sought after models, empowers women of all shapes, colors and sizes. TRUE has close ties with many of the most influential names in the industry, including Calvin Klein, DKNY, GAP, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger and Victoria's Secret. br Kathryn also interviews Professor of Gerontology Kenneth Doka PhD, author of “Grief is a Journey: Finding Your Path Through Loss”. There is no 'one-size-fits-all' way to cope with loss, and grief is not an illness to get over but an individual and ongoing journey. Dr. Doka challenges the prevailing, often judgmental, ideas about grief which the conventional 'five stages' model' dictates. Dr. Doka is a prolific author and ordained Lutheran minister and has been interviewed on CNN.
