Ever find yourself standing in your kitchen, forgetting how to peel an orange? Or panic in a parking lot because you don't remember driving to the store, much less remember where you parked? You are not alone. In this powerful and deeply honest episode, Laura shares what it's like to experience a mental breakdown in grief; the fogginess, the forgetfulness, the moments of overwhelming disorientation that can feel both terrifying and isolating. This is part of the journey of Rebuilding Your Life After Child Loss.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

This episode also introduces a hopeful next step, as Laura invites you to stay connected as she unveils a series of workshops that are gentle, faith-based paths designed to guide grieving parents toward healing and purpose. Think of them as nourishing steps, not flashy fixes, crafted to help you move forward because of your love, not despite your loss.

Grief is disorienting, but you are not disqualified. Even foggy moments aren't failures, but invitations to remember: clarity does return, and one small step can help you walk toward a life of meaning again.

Whether you stay just to listen, or one day feel ready to walk forward with community, you are always welcome here.
