Helping grieving mothers cope with child loss

Grief & child loss expert

The question I HATED the most as a newly bereaved mom was…

“How are you?”

It always felt like a punch in the gut 🥊

Because the truth is, I wasn’t fine—and yet I learned to say I was. And that felt like a betrayal to me and my deceased daughter.

Grief is complicated. Some days I’m surviving, others I’m aching, and sometimes I just don’t have the words.

Instead of asking “How are you?”, try:

• “I’ve been thinking about you.”
• “You’ve been on my mind and in my heart”
• “I think of your child so often”

Those kind words mean everything.

Anyone else struggle with his?? 🤔

Share this with someone who needs to hear it.

What else has changed for you??

What else has changed for you??

Grief is heavy, unpredictable, and deeply personal. But over time, I’ve found a few things—big and small—that help me carry it. If you’re grieving too, maybe one of these will speak to your heart today.

✨ Physical
• Daily walks or gentle stretching
• Drinking more water (even when it’s hard)
• Resting when my body says “enough”
• Snuggling in soft blankets or wearing cozy clothes
• Eating nourishing, easy meals (or even just snacks)
• Weighted blankets to help with sleep
• Warm baths or showers
• Massage or acupuncture
• Turning off alarms and letting my body sleep in

🧠 Mental
• Writing down thoughts to release the mental swirl
• Reading books about grief or resilience
• Limiting social media when it feels too noisy
• Listening to grief podcasts that make me feel seen
• Saying “no” without guilt
• Practicing simple affirmations like “I’m doing the best I can”
• Creating a small daily routine for structure
• Focusing on just one task at a time

🕊️ Spiritual
• Talking to my child or writing them letters
• Lighting a candle each evening in their honor
• Creating a small altar or memory space
• Sitting in quiet prayer or meditation
• Reading devotionals or spiritual books
• Walking in nature and noticing signs
• Visiting sacred spaces that bring peace
• Trusting that my child’s love is still with me

💛 Emotional
• Letting myself cry without apology
• Looking at photos or listening to their favorite songs
• Talking out loud to them
• Seeing a therapist or grief counselor
• Watching uplifting or nostalgic movies
• Creating art or memory crafts
• Naming my feelings instead of pushing them away
• Taking breaks from “being strong”

🤝 Social
• Reaching out to another bereaved mom
• Joining online grief groups or communities

When you lose someone you love, the pain doesn’t stop at the moment of loss.

It echoes—again and again.💔

These are called secondary losses:
• The friendships that fade
• The milestones that feel hollow
• The future you imagined that’s no longer possible

They’re the additional heartbreaks no one warns you about.

How do YOU cope when grief keeps showing up in new ways?

In this week’s episode of the Grief & Child Loss Support podcast, I’m diving into:
• What secondary losses are
• Why they hit so hard
• 3 ways to process them with more compassion and grace

You are not alone in this.

Don’t mistake my smile for a healed heart.
I’m still grieving—every single day.

Yes, I laugh.
Yes, I show up.
Yes, I live.
But none of that means the pain is gone.

When you’ve lost a child, the grief doesn’t leave you.
You carry it—in every single way possible.

Some days it’s loud. Some days it’s quiet. But it’s always there. Right beneath the surface of every smile.

If you’re living with that same quiet ache, I see you.
You’re not alone in this.

In time we learn to carry joy along with our grief ♥️❤️‍🩹
It’s ok to smile, laugh, and live.

Tag an angel mom who carries her love and her pain at the same time.

One of the best tools for calming the nervous system is breath work, BUT if you are like me, calming your mind while grieving can seem impossible and frustrating.

That's why I created this short GUIDED meditation to help you. Listen to it anytime you need to bring your anxiety, grief, and pain down a notch or two, like before bed.

Supporting Someone Who Is Grieving isn’t about fixing the pain — it’s about showing up, again and again, in love and presence.

Here are some ways to offer meaningful support ⤵️

Practical Support

• 🧺 Drop off meals (bonus: use disposable containers)

Emotional Support

• 💬 Say their child’s name — often
• 👂 Be a safe space for tears, silence, or stories

Other Meaningful Gestures

• 🕯 Light a candle on anniversaries or special dates
• 📖 Gift a thoughtful book or memory journal
• 🌷 Plant a flower or tree in memory

No, I’m not strong for surviving this. I am strong—because I have to be.

In fact, hearing “you’re so strong” sometimes drives me nuts.

No one asked me if I wanted to be this strong.
No one asked me if I wanted this life.

I didn’t choose this pain—but I carry it.

Behind the smile is a mask. Behind the mask is a mother grieving.

Every single day, I haul my grief with me.

I’m doing my best. I know you are too.
I see you. I’m with you.

And I’m sending you the biggest hug right now.💞

If this hit home, drop a heart in the comments so we can support each other.♥️

You are not alone, even when it feels like it.

Seeing other happy families—especially those who haven’t experienced the pain of child loss—can stir up a wide range of grief triggers.

Here are some common ones:

😞 Longing and emptiness: A deep ache for what should have been—family moments, milestones, laughter that’s missing.

😞 Jealousy and guilt: Feeling envious of others’ intact families, then judging yourself for that feeling.

😞 Anger or resentment: At the unfairness of it all—why them and not us? Why my child?

😞 Isolation: A sense that others can’t truly understand your grief, making you feel alone even in a crowd.

😞 Bittersweet memories: Watching siblings, birthdays, or holidays unfold can flood you with memories of your child and what’s lost.

😞 Invisible pain: Feeling like the depth of your loss is unseen while others are carefree and whole.

😞 Protective numbness: Choosing to emotionally shut down in those moments as a way to cope.

What triggers have you experienced??

Yes it’s unpopular and you may not want to hear it… ⤵️

Staying stuck in grief is just as hard as choosing to work through it.

Both hurt—but only one moves you forward.👈🏼

You don’t have to make a massive leap. Just a 1% shift today:

• Take one deep breath before getting out of bed.
• Step outside and feel the sun on your face.
• Speak their name out loud and smile through the tears.

Tiny steps are healing. Pain is not what connects you to your loved one 💔

Choose your hard—with love and intention.

Share this with another grieving heart who needs a gentle nudge 💞

Why Are People So Cruel When You’re Grieving? 💔

Grief makes people uncomfortable. Some don’t know what to say, so they say the wrong thing. Others project their own fears or impatience onto you. And some simply lack the compassion to hold space for deep pain.

But their words do not define your grief , your love for your child, or anything about your grief journey.

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m diving into why people can be so unkind—and how to protect your heart when it happens. 🎧💙

Mother’s Day is complicated when your child lives in heaven.💔

It’s a day the world celebrates, while your heart quietly aches. If you’re a grieving mom, I see you. I honour you. And I’m holding space for your love and your pain.

Here are a few ways to care for yourself this Mother’s Day:

♥️ Say no to what doesn’t serve you — it’s okay to opt out

♥️ Make space to honor your child in a way that feels meaningful

♥️ Surround yourself with people who understand or give you room to just be

♥️ Speak their name — out loud, in writing, or in your heart

♥️ Let the tears come, and the love too — both can live together

♥️ Give yourself permission to grieve in your own way and time

You are still a mother. And your child is still so very loved.

5 Unique and Gentle Ideas for Mother’s Day ❤️‍🩹

1️⃣ Hang wind chimes in a peaceful spot — let the sound remind you of their presence and spirit in the breeze.

2️⃣ Decorate a stone with their name or symbols and place it in a quiet space like your garden or by a tree.

3️⃣ Release floating lanterns or flower petals into a lake or stream, as you silently send a message to Heaven.

4️⃣ Start or tend an Angel Garden in your yard or on your deck. Add a new plant or statue every year.

Feeling is healing.❤️‍🩹

We can’t heal it if we won’t feel it.

I know it’s tempting to stay busy, push it down, or ‘smile’ through the ache… but grief doesn’t disappear just because we pretend it’s not there. In fact pushing it down will only bite you in the butt.

It waits… and sometimes it festers and grows. But, when we finally make space to feel it? That’s when healing begins.

You don’t have to have it all together.

And you don’t have to do it alone.

Let the tears come.

That’s not weakness. That’s healing ❤️‍🩹

Today is Bereaved Mother’s Day❤️‍🩹 It’s a day that honors the invisible motherhood carried in silence and love.

If your arms feel empty but your heart overflows with memories, this day is for you.

You are still a mother.♥️

Here are a few gentle ways to find comfort today:

♦ Light a candle and say their name out loud
♦ Look through photos or keepsakes that bring you close
♦ Take a quiet walk and talk to them in your heart
♦ Write a letter to your child—share your love, your pain, your memories
♦ Allow yourself to cry, rest, or feel nothing at all—it’s all valid
♦ Connect with other bereaved moms who understand your journey

Let’s say their names! ♥️⤵️

Share this message to remind another Angel Mom she’s not alone. ♥️❤️‍🩹

Her grief, her love, her story—deserve to be honored too.

Things I Wish I Had Learned Earlier on My Grief Journey ⤵️

Grief is a lifelong companion, but there are things that can lighten the load. If you’re grieving, I hope this helps you even a teeny tiny bit ❤️‍🩹

Here’s what I wish someone had told me sooner:

🔷 Grief isn’t linear—it’s a lot of ups & downs
🔷 You don’t have to be strong all the time
🔷 Crying doesn’t mean you’re weak
🔷 It’s okay to laugh again
🔷 Triggers can come out of nowhere
🔷 People may not show up how you hoped
🔷 Healing doesn’t mean forgetting
🔷 There’s no deadline for “moving on”
🔷 You’re allowed to say no
🔷 Get support—it makes a difference
🔷 Not everyone will understand, and that’s not your fault
🔷 Memories can be both comforting and painful
🔷 Joy and grief can exist together
🔷 Self-care is not selfish
🔷 Anniversaries, holidays, and random Tuesdays can all be hard. Excruciating.
🔷 You are not alone in this
🔷 Grief changes, but it never truly leaves
🔷 Finding purpose again takes time—and that’s okay

Want more comfort + encouragement? ⤵️

Would that change the way you live your life??

What if joy isn’t the opposite of grief—but part of how we honor the love that never ends?

You don’t have to choose between grief and joy. They co-exist.

Let’s live in a way that keeps love alive. ♥️♥️

Drop a ♥️ if you believe they’re still with you—and smiling.

If you’ve ever stumbled on what to say to a grieving mom, you’re not alone.

Sometimes the kindest hearts say the most painful things without realizing it. 💔

Let’s change that — together.

Here are some words that bring comfort instead of confusion⤵️

♥️ “I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere.”
♥️ “I miss them too. Is it ok if I share a favourite memory with you?”
♥️ “There are no words, but I care deeply.”
♥️ “I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I want to support you, but I’m not sure how.”
♥️ “I’m here to listen.”
♥️ “I’ll sit with you as long as you need me.”

Let’s create a shift in how the world talks about grief.

I couldn’t eat after Katie died 😞

Smoothies were the one thing I relied on for nutrition. And still do.

Fuelling my body helps give me the “strength” to keep going.

Healthy body = healthy mind = better sleep = better coping 🍃 🧘🏻‍♀️

Here’s my recipe: 🥤

1 cup frozen mixed berries
1cup spinach
1 cup almond milk
1Tbsp chia seeds
1Tbsp cocoa (or more)
1Tbsp flaxseeds
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1scoop collagen

Blend and enjoy. ** if you’re menopausal like I am, all the fiber will help counteract some of the symptoms of menopause as well. 👍🏼

What do you do for self-care?

Do you have a favourite smoothie recipe??

Please share your recipe ⤵️

I thought I was going crazy, but it was grief. 😞

No one warned me how strange grief can be — not just emotionally, but physically, mentally, everywhere.

Some of the weird and wonky symptoms of grief include:

🔸Brain fog: Forgetting why you walked into a room
🔸Random exhaustion: Feeling like you ran a marathon… just getting out of bed
🔸Physical aches: Shoulder tension, stomach knots, chest tightness
🔸Mood swings: Laughing one minute, sobbing the next
🔸Weird dreams: Vivid, emotional, and sometimes unsettling
🔸 Zero patience: Tiny things can feel overwhelming
🔸 Anxiety spikes: Feeling jumpy, restless, or panicky for no obvious reason
🔸 Detachment: Like you’re watching life happen instead of living it

Grief doesn’t just break your heart — it rattles your whole system.

You’re not broken. You’re grieving.

If you’re navigating this messy, complicated grief journey, know that you’re not alone.❤️‍🩹

Follow along for more encouragement and support.

If you’ve heard those words while grieving, you know how much they can sting. 💥

The truth is—most people don’t say it to be cruel. They say it because they’re uncomfortable with pain they can’t fix. They want you to be “okay” again… for them. ❤️‍🩹

But grief doesn’t have a timeline. And moving forward is not the same as moving on.

In this week’s episode of the Grief & Child Loss Support for Moms podcast, I’m sharing exactly how to deal with these kinds of comments—what to say, how to protect your heart, and how to stay grounded in your own healing. ✅

❤️‍🩹 A deeper appreciation for life’s quiet moments
❤️‍🩹 Stronger, soul-level connections with others (Angel Moms are the BEST friends 💞)
❤️‍🩹 A renewed sense of purpose and compassion
❤️‍🩹 The ability to feel joy and sorrow at the same time
❤️‍🩹 A fierce love that never fades

These realizations take time. These are life learnings I didn’t want to learn this way but it has made be love deeper, live more fully and strive to be a better human.

You don’t need the right words to support someone who’s grieving.

You just need to show up. 👍🏼

Even if you fumble. Even if you say, “I don’t know what to say.”

Because silence hurts more than awkwardness.

Here’s how to support a grieving friend when words fail:

✅ Say their child’s name—it matters more than you know

✅ Sit beside them without needing to fix anything

✅ Text “I’m thinking of you today” with no expectation for a reply

✅ Drop off a coffee, a meal, or a “no need to answer” card

✅ Keep showing up—grief doesn’t end after the funeral

You don’t have to be perfect. Just present. 💜

Share this to gently teach others how to support grief better.
