I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how we can take of ourselves when life throws us a curveball and I believe its all about organizing the care and keeping of YOU.

Use your pain to transform how you move through the world. Learn to live in grace and love while never forgetting the brokenness. It is because of the bitter that we can fully experience the sweet.

Here’s the thing. Even though you feel like your future is over, it isn’t. If you have a pulse, you have a future. If you have a future, there is a future version of you waiting for you and cheering you on.

I have come to the end of myself. I have given up dreams of my past and future. In sitting on the ledge, I became aware of the possibility of a new life, a new life in which I served and nourished others.

The sun really does rise and set each day, and with that passage of time our loss becomes more manageable.

While it’s so hard to remember, the storms in your life will pass, and above that angry storm are beautiful blue skies!

There are many things you can do to support your widowed family and friends on Mother’s Day.

I know that organizing your life after loss is hard. I also know it won’t begin until you can get yourself into a better mental space.

Knowing I had options helped me relax and enjoy dating for what it was: a chance to dip my toes into the water and see if I even liked the pond!
