Omaha Mom Talks

Lessons from the Hardest Days of My Life


Listen Later

Welcome back to Omaha Mom Talks!

Thank you for joining me for the first episode of Season 2. I’m so glad to have
you here. If you’re new, I’m Jessie -  a wife, mama of two (ages 4 and 7),
mental health therapist, and your fellow millennial mom just trying to figure
it all out.


What to Expect:

In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey through the loss of both of my parents -  my dad, who passed away in early 2020, and my mom, who I
lost in the summer of 2024. I talk about the complexities of grief, including
what it’s like to lose a parent while raising young kids, and the ways this journey has shaped my approach to motherhood and my work as a therapist. I also touch on the well-known Kübler-Ross stages of grief and why they’re often misunderstood. If you’ve ever felt untethered by grief or wondered how to show up for others walking that path, this one’s for you.


Episode Highlights:

·       Why I started this podcast during a time of intense grief

·       Reflecting on my dad’s sudden passing in 2020 and how his kindness and unconditional love shaped the way I parent

·       Honoring my mom’s journey, including her struggles with mental health and the resilience she showed in the face of those challenges

·       Why grief isn’t a problem to fix and why support matters more than solutions

·       The power of finding community in the midst of loss

·       Practical insights on holding space for others grieving and what I’ve learned along the way
