At some point after loss… the house starts to sound different. Not louder. Not quieter. Just… different in a way that's hard to explain to someone who hasn't felt it. In this episode I'm sitting with you in something that doesn't get talked about nearly enough - that particular kind of silence that moves in after loss. The one that isn't empty exactly, but somehow feels heavier than empty ever did. You know the sounds I'm talking about. The hum of the refrigerator you never noticed before. Th...

I Got Rid of His Toothbrush and Cried for Three Days
You wouldn’t think something as small as a toothbrush could undo you… …but sometimes it’s the smallest things that hit the hardest.

Earthling, your love is not lost—it's just learning a new ...

When Grief Hits the Grocery Store
When Grief Hits in the Grocery Store Perfect for anyone navigating loss, supporting a grieving friend, or wondering why the produce section made them cry last Tuesday. You went in for bananas and milk. Somehow you're ugly-crying in the bread aisle, wondering what just happened to your Tuesday afternoon. Here's the thing nobody tells you about grief: it doesn't wait for the "appropriate" moments. It sneaks into Target runs and coffee shop visits. It shows up when you're just trying to buy cere...

Small Wins Count (Like Pants and Prayer)
Growth happens underground first. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not happening. When putting on real pants feels like a victory. Let's talk about small wins. And when I say small, I mean tiny. Microscopic. Like "I put on real pants today" small. Like "I opened my Bible, got overwhelmed after two verses, and shut it again" small. Like "I brushed my teeth and only cried a little bit" small. If that's the season you're in—if getting through the day feels like a marathon and putt...

Jesus, Hot Chocolate,& the Missing Sock
You don't have to get it together before He'll show up. When you find yourself crying in the laundry room over a missing sock. Y'all, I found Jesus this morning... right next to the lint trap. It was one of those mornings. I woke up late, hair doing something that looked more like spiritual warfare than style, and shuffled to the kitchen like someone risen from the ashes. All I wanted—needed—was hot chocolate. But of course, someone (me) had forgotten to buy more. After digging like a raccoon...

Feathers, Pennies, & Parking Spaces - Is It a Sign or Just Tuesday?
Sometimes the most profound miracles look exactly like Tuesday. When you wonder if that feather on your windshield was really from heaven. You know what I mean, right? Those little moments that make you stop and wonder—was that just a coincidence, or did someone I love just tap me on the shoulder from heaven? The feather that lands on your windshield right when you're crying. The penny—heads up, of course—sitting perfectly in your path when you're having the worst day. That parking space that...

It's Okay To Miss Them and Still Move Forward
You may always miss them. You may always wish they were still here. And you're still allowed to take the next step, and the one after that. When you feel guilty for having a good day without them. Let's talk about the sacred in-between—that tender place where you're missing someone with your whole soul and also starting to move forward.

The Day I Lost It In The Card Aisle
Your tears aren't a burden. They're a witness. When grief ambushes you in the most ordinary places. I wasn't even planning to go there that day. I just needed dog food. Simple errand, in and out, nothing dramatic. But I took a wrong turn somewhere past the seasonal stuff, and suddenly there I was—standing in front of rows and rows of Mother's Day cards. And then I saw it. One card that stopped me dead in my tracks: "To the love of my life, who made ordinary days beautiful." Something in my ch...

Jesus Doesn't Need You To "Get Over It"
Presence comes before fixing. Compassion doesn't wait until everything's resolved. When you feel like God must be disappointed in your slow healing. Maybe grief took a sledgehammer to the theology you grew up with. Maybe you used to have answers, and now you just have questions. Maybe you're carrying shame about still being sad months later, wondering if Jesus is standing over you with His arms crossed, tapping His foot, waiting for you to get your act together. Sweet soul, that heaviness you...

You Are Not A Burden
Your worth was never tied to how easy you are to love. When grief makes you feel like you're "too much" for everyone around you. Let me guess—someone invited you to coffee last week, and you said no. Not because you didn't want to see them, but because you were afraid you'd be a downer. Sound familiar? Here's what grief does that nobody warns you about: it doesn't just break your heart. It breaks your sense of belonging. Suddenly, you feel like you're too much. Too sad. Too slow. Too heavy fo...

What to Say When People Say the Wrong Thing
What to Say When People Say the Wrong ThingA tender conversation about love that doesn't know how to end "He's in a better place." "At least you had all those good years." "God never gives us more than we can handle." "You need to move on—he wouldn't want you to be sad." Sound familiar? If someone recently opened their mouth and said something that made you want to laugh, cry, or commit a small felony, this conversation is for you. Here's the truth nobody wants to say out loud: grief makes pe...
