The Grief Mentor | Life After Child Loss, Hope and Healing For Grieving Moms, Bereavement, Christian Grief SupportShow Notes
If you have just found yourself in the most disorienting place you have ever been — unable to think straight, unable to explain what you are living through, unable to recognize yourself or your life — this episode is for you. This is for the mom who is in the earliest and most vulnerable steps of her grief journey. The mom who is searching for something, anything, to hold onto. The mom who needs someone to tell her that what she is feeling is not strange, not wrong, and not the end of her story. Today Teresa sits with you exactly where you are. No pressure to be further along. No expectation to have it together. Just permission to be exactly where you are — and something solid to hold onto while you are there. In this episode you'll discover... Why the disorientation you are feeling after child loss is not a sign that something is wrong — it is a sign that you loved deeply
What it actually looks like to give yourself permission to be exactly where you are right now
A powerful scripture that gives you your very next step when you have no idea which way to turn
Start your day with this one simple practice that will carry you through even your hardest moments
You are going to make it. Even when it feels like you are not. Even when you cannot see the path forward through the fog of your grief.
