There’s an invisible ceiling above you, limiting what you believe is possible for your life after loss. You didn't put it there consciously, you probably can't even see it clearly, but you can feel its weight pressing down on everything you do. This quiet but powerful belief problem shapes your entire future without you even realizing it's there.

After losing your person, you put one foot in front of the other and get through the practical stuff. You hold it together for your kids, your job, your family. Eventually you reach a place where you're not in crisis mode anymore, but you're not really living either - you're just existing inside patterns that feel familiar and predictable but not great.

Most widows never stop to consider that the way they think about what's possible for their lives is just a habit, not a fact or fixed reality. This week, you'll discover why feeling stuck is so common and learn that possibility is something you can create based on the beliefs you choose to cultivate for yourself.

When Hugo died, people kept assuming I'd be furious at the driver who had meth and alcohol in his system. But the anger just wasn't there - it felt like a tragedy, not a betrayal. The emotions I carried were heavy with sadness and shock, but not the white-hot rage everyone expected.

This time around, with my recent breakup and having to sell the house, I'm experiencing wave after wave of intense anger. Maybe you've been caught off guard by unexpected waves of anger, or perhaps you're wondering why you're not feeling angry when everyone expects you to be.

Join me this week as I share my own real-time experience with anger in grief, and how drastically different it can look from one loss to another. I'll show you how to let these waves of emotion move through without letting them drive your choices, whether your anger comes early, late, or not at all.

Black-and-white thinking shows up everywhere in grief - in the harsh judgments we make about ourselves, in the impossible standards we hold ourselves to, and in the rigid rules we create about how healing should look.

It's that voice that says you're either doing grief "right" or you're failing completely, with no room for the messy middle ground where most of us actually live.

In this week’s episode, you’ll learn a more gentle way of thinking about your grief journey. I show you how to break free from black-and-white thinking, and why making space for nuance might be exactly what you need.
