Uncomfortable Friend
Grief is an Uncomfortable Friend. The pain can be unbearable and yet, it's often one of the few things remain after the loss of someone so special. Join me on the journey of "now what" after everything falls apart. My mission is to authentically share my story in an effort to help others feel seen, develop vocabulary around their grief, discuss finding oneself after loss, ways to feel comfort, how to establish meaning, find hope, embrace continued connection, and more. Nothing is off-limits… everyone’s path is unique. I’m honored to have you join me and look forward to your questions, comments, personal stories, and observations. Until we meet again...

The Lies We Tell Ourselves
"It's my fault!", "I should have known this would happen", "I need to stay strong for..." do any of these statements sound familiar? I've recently read a book that opened my eyes to some deeply packed down trauma and the lies I've been telling myself over the years. I share some of these narratives today to hope it helps you to recognize what a lie could look like to yourself, give yourself a difference lens to look at it, and through your vulnerability acknowledge the struggle and what you've needed to embrace self-compassion.
