Because Life Can Be a Niche

Hey, Lifers!

This episode is about healing after breakups, broken marriages and friendships. Just because the social media posts are beautiful doesn’t mean everything is perfect. In fact, sometimes it’s the opposite of perfect and may be hiding a tumultuous situation filled with heartbreak. Our special guest, Krystle McGuire, is sharing her story of healing through her powerful blog, ToBeKrystleClear.com. A mom of three beautiful girls, Krystle shows us that there’s healing on the other side of whatever pain you’re going through.

Krystle is healing out loud and has started an organization, Normalize Healing. Follow her on Instagram @tobekrystleclear to purchase Normalize Healing t-shirts and her signature, inspirational coffee mugs.

Life doesn't always go as planned. This week was supposed to be a celebratory one-year anniversary situation. I launched this podcast a year ago on May 4, in memory of my dad's birthday. Since dad's death, the first few days of May come with a wave of emotions with lots of happy memories, and a few tears here and there. But this year, our family dealt with another birthday memory. Their paternal grandmother passed away suddenly last year, just two weeks after the boys wrapped a fun-filled visit with her and Grandpa. Her birthday happens to fall on May 3, just one day before my dad. To round this thing all the way out, my parents' wedding anniversary is May 5. The house was a ball of emotions. With all of this, there were some powerful lessons. One, the anniversary episode will drop next week. I had to do some mom'ing in a big way this week, for my kiddos, my mom and myself. We talk about what we've learned about managing grief together.

As a divorcee, raising young men requires a different type of mood. I've learned to balance the nurturing and protective mama bear with the raising them to survive in a cruel world vibe. Hey mamas, we don't have to do it alone.
