Join myself and a peer volunteer as we facilitate a two-day Zoom workshop: Living With Your Loss: A Guided Curriculum to Living a Meaningful Life After Loss.

Saturday, Sept 13 & Sept 20
Time: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Connect, reflect, and find support with facilitators who have lived experience of loss.

Sending love, mamas 🌻🌼☀️💛

Please consider skipping the fake pregnancy announcements tomorrow. Infertility and baby loss are no joke to those who suffer. 🤍

I see the clock at 12:17 almost everyday. I don’t look for it - just happens to be the time when I glance at whatever clock is nearby. December 17 is Declan’s day and I take it as his little (almost) daily reminder that he’s with me. ⭐️✨#Stillbirth

White Space is a square on my calendar where nothing is planned. When we protect our time, we protect our peace. #Grief #Substack

My griefy little Substack. 💛

Brené Brown’s Manifesto of the Brave and Broken Hearted fuels me. 💛

Still In The Ache - silence speaks volumes in grief, and I don’t always like what it says, but stillness is key to our most transformative moments.

Little things can be big things in grief - in good ways.

#Divorce #Grief

After my sister-in-law died, leaving behind a loving husband, her parents and two teenage daughters, I became captain of the family ship ..and I had no idea how to navigate it.

An Intuitive Griever internalizes - wants to talk about what happened & fears that if we don’t speak of our person then we may be dishonouring their legacy. An Instrumental Griever needs to grieve in more of a “doing” way - dive into projects, keep busy & try to ‘fix’ things.

Yellow. It is my most favourite colour because of the emotion it evokes from within. Is that feeling when joy and heartache find balance. Similar to acceptance, but deeper. Some might call it inner peace, but it is what yellow ‘feels’ like to me. 💛

Did a little decorating for Declan at his grave stone. 💛 #babygrave #babyloss #stillbirth

Someone important to me who is facing a tough fight in her cancer battle these days sent this text to me yesterday as I spoke about missing my sister-in-law in our Black Friday Shopping traditions. These words about dying twice keep circling my mind and I find them to be rather powerful. #Grief
