I am almost at the 5 year anniversary of my husband's death and let me tell you GRIEF has almost taken over!

We tend to hear more about the woman when she loses her husband and what life is like for her. We very rarely hear about the man and what is life like for him now that his wife is gone. This interview was done in the hopes of giving grieving men a voice and to help society to see and understand that men do grieve but also life for them will never be the same!

The truth is I haven't been completely truthful to myself! In order for me to walk into the life that God has for me I have to learn to speak my truth no matter what! ITS MY JOB!!!! 

"Here is where I am, Here is where Your not!

A lot of the time WE are the reason that things are not changing and/or moving in our lives! If we are entertaining BS than you want have room in your life for what God has for you!

In the final episode in this series my special guest Cierra will be sharing with us her journey to healing and her plans for the future.

In this episode my special guest Cierra will be talking about the day her boyfriend was killed and the events that led up to his death. 

Disenfranchised grief also known as hidden grief or sorrow reflects any grief that goes unacknowledged for example like the loss of a boyfriend or girlfriend. This is Episode 1 in a series titled "How My Boyfriend's Death Changed My Life," featuring my beautiful niece Cierra Harris. 

The 5 Stages of Grief are as follows: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance or DABDA for short. These 5 Stages were first described by author Elisabeth Kubler-Ross in her classic book "On Death and Dying" in 1969. You have to understand that no 2 people grieve the same and grief can come in different forms it doesn't always have to be death it can be divorce, loss of a job etc.
