Welcome to Between Here and Heaven. I'm Tara Delaney, and I'm so grateful that you're here. This podcast episode comes from a very personal and vulnerable story. It is a place that was born from love, from loss, and from the quiet, unwavering truth that some connections never die. This podcast is a safe place for grief, for healing, for signs from beyond, but most of all for honoring the light that lives beyond the darkness. Whether you're moving through loss or learning to live again with a broken heart, this space is for you. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I do have stories, I have received signs, and I believe in a love that never left. So let's begin Between Here and Heaven. The holidays can be a tough time, especially when you're missing someone you love. I know this all too well, as Christmas holds a sacred tenderness for me, being the last time I saw my son, Sloan, before he passed away. In this episode, I share my journey through grief during the holiday season, the importance of giving yourself permission to feel, and how to create new traditions that honor your loved ones. I talk about the power of connection, whether it's reaching out to a friend or connecting in spirit with those we've lost. Remember, love is the thread that binds us, even in our deepest grief. Join me as we explore ways to navigate this tender time, focusing on gentleness and the love that still surrounds us. If you're feeling the weight of loss this holiday season, know that you're not alone. Together, we can find peace in the pauses and strength in the love that never leaves us. Thank you for being here for this sacred conversation.
