    In this episode of Break the Silence, Build a Future, we explore the concept of delayed grief—the grief that we push aside when life’s demands leave us no room to process our loss. I’ll share my own experiences with delayed grief, from losing loved ones while adjusting to a new life in Canada to navigating the end of a long marriage while raising young children. Together, we’ll uncover the impact of unprocessed grief and discuss ways to finally make space for the healing we’ve been postponing.

    In this episode of Break the Silence, Build a Future, I reflect on the overwhelming nature of grief—how it doesn’t come in waves but floods every part of life, making even the simplest tasks feel impossible. After losing my daughter, grief became a constant presence, filling every moment and relationship, leaving little room for anything else. I’ll share how I managed to live through those moments, what it took to keep going, and how I’ve learned to carry grief without letting it consume me. If you’ve ever felt trapped under the weight of grief, this episode will help you understand that it’s okay to feel overwhelmed—and that even in those moments, understanding is still possible.

  • Episode Two: The Weight of Expectations: Grief Doesn’t Look the Way We Thought
    Oct 17 2024

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Break the Silence, Build a Future, I explore the tension between what we expect grief to look like and the reality of how it actually shows up. After the loss of my daughter, I found myself struggling with the disconnect between society’s expectations of grief—especially for mothers—and my own experience of quiet numbness. I’ll share my personal story of feeling guilt and confusion for not grieving the “right way” and offer insight into how I came to accept that there is no perfect script for grief. Healing begins when we stop comparing and start accepting our grief for what it is—unique and valid.
