Elyse On Life

Episode 226: Good Grief


Listen Later

Hi There,

Interrupting our regular flow with some back to school thoughts on good grief. Didn’t see that coming huh?

This week I sent my two sons to middle school and my daughter to fourth grade. Cue the memory lane of middle school moments and feeling like maybe parenthood is finally going too quickly. Then I ran into a friend of mine who is sending her first son to college so we both cried, naturally. What hit me after this interaction was the concept of good grief. What if there are good things, really good things that we have been hoping and planning for and praying for and they happen and then we just want our baby back thank you very much? What good things are happening that are also kicking up some grief?

Give this episode a listen and let me know what you think. Do you have any good grief?

Cheers,

Elyse

P.S. I am now accepting appointments for Fall if you have been considering doing some work together. www.elysesnipes.com
