If you survived the holidays but feel like you’re falling apart now… you’re not alone — and you’re not doing grief wrong.

January can feel heavier than December for grieving moms. The noise fades, support disappears, and grief finally has room to surface. In this episode, I’m talking honestly about why the emotional crash after the holidays is so common after child loss — and why it doesn’t mean you’re going backward.

In this episode, we talk about:
• Why January grief often feels worse than December
• The emotional crash that comes after survival mode ends
• Why support fades after the holidays — and how that impacts grief
• Why January grief is not regression, but processing
• A gentle faith reframe for this quiet, heavy season
• What actually helps in January (without toxic positivity)

I’m also sharing an important update:
