273: A Mother’s Day Reflection: Making Space for Joy After Loss
Manage episode 482876624 series 3490567
As many of you know, this time of year is always layered for me. Mother’s Day brings both sweet memories and aching absences.
In this episode of Parenting Impossible, I open up about my own motherhood journey. I’ve lived through the joy of raising two incredible daughters, and I’ve lived through the unimaginable grief of losing one of them. I wanted to share a few things I’ve learned along the way—things I wish I’d known when I was in the thick of it. To those of you parenting children with disabilities, caring for aging parents, or simply doing your best to hold it all together: I see you. You are not alone. And whatever Mother’s Day looks like for you this year, I hope you find a moment to honor the incredible work you're doing.
In this episode, you will hear:
It’s okay if motherhood doesn’t feel magical all the time.
A shift can come when you least expect it.
Choose joy where you can.
