- 52 | I’m a Christian, and Sometimes I Don’t Like What God Has Done With My Life
What do you do when you love God, believe He's good, but don't like what He's allowed to happen in your life? In this episode of Loud About Loss, I'm having an honest conversation about faith, grief, disappointment, and the questions we’re often afraid to ask God. As a mother who lost her daughter, I share why I don't believe being a Christian means pretending we're okay with everything that happens, how biblical lament gives us permission to bring our anger and pain to God, and why you can trust Him without understanding His plan. If you've ever thought, “I love God, but I don't like what has happened to my life,” this conversation is for you. You don't have to sanitize your grief, have all the answers, or choose between honesty and faith.

30 min - 51 | I Wrote a Devotional for Bereaved Moms (and It Fell Into My Lap)
My new devotional for bereaved mothers, I Am Near, is available for pre-order now — publishing August 4th.
The story of how this book happened is so unmistakably God that I had to share it. A woman from Penguin Random House saw one of my YouTube videos about Gracie. They had an idea for a devotional for bereaved mothers — and they were looking for the right author. They chose me. I had less than three months to write 52 entries. I did it.
For the first time, I felt like the chosen expert in grief. I'd never felt like an expert in anything.
This book is for the mom who can't feel God right now — but hasn't stopped showing up.

12 min - 49 | Why Bereaved Mothers Need to Abandon The 5 Stages of Grief
The five stages of grief weren't designed to be a checklist — and they were never biblical. In this episode, I'm breaking down why the "stages" model actually hurts grieving moms, what the Psalms really say about grief, and why you are not failing just because your grief isn't linear.
I’m looking for 10 women who have lost a child and are willing to share a little about what life feels like right now.
I created a short, honest form—no calls, no pressure. Just a space to tell the truth about your experience.
I read every response personally, and it truly helps more than you know.

8 min - 48 | Grieving Parents Are Collecting These Painful 'At Least' Comments | Here's Why They Hurt
If you've lost a child, you've collected them — the well-meaning "at leasts" that people say when they don't know what else to do. "At least she's not in pain." "At least you got time with her." "At least you still have your faith."
They mean well. That's what makes it so hard.
In this video I'm breaking down why we say "at least," why it quietly wounds the grieving heart, and what God actually says instead — because it's not what most of us expect.

8 min - 47 | Happy Mother's Day... Said Who? (For the Grieving Mother Who's Just Sad)
This one's for the mama who braces herself every May. The one who smiles when someone says "Happy Mother's Day" even though something inside her sinks a little. In this episode, Becky gets honest about what Mother's Day actually feels like after child loss, why you ARE still a mother (the Bible says so), and why some years the holiest thing you can do is close your bedroom door and eat food you didn't cook. Biblical. Real. And yes, there's a bed story.

22 min - 46 | 7 Signs You're Avoiding Grief
Are you actually grieving — or are you just surviving it? Most moms who've lost a child don't realize they've been avoiding their grief. It doesn't look dramatic. It looks like busyness. Numbness. Anger. Managing everyone else. In this video, I share 7 signs that you might be walking around your grief instead of through it — and what to do about it.

22 min - 45 | I Found the Official Grief Expiration Date (It's Hilarious and Also I'm Furious)
Your grief doesn't have an expiration date — but society kind of acts like it does. In this video, I'm breaking down why the world forgets your child, why it's not entirely their fault (but also kind of is), and — most importantly — two tangible practices to help you stay tethered to the truth of who your child was when everyone else has moved on.
What you'll walk away with:
✅ The Expiration Audit — 3 questions to reclaim your own grief timeline
✅ The Memory Anchor Practice — a 3-part practice to keep your child's memory alive on the hard days

23 min - 44 | Is It Okay to Be Angry at God? (A Grieving Mom's Perspective)
After child loss, anger can feel just as overwhelming as grief — and sometimes even guiltier. We’re taught that “strong faith” looks quiet, polite, and accepting. But what happens when your heart is shattered and your prayers sound more like accusations than praise?
In this episode, we’re talking about the “Angry Prayer.”
We’re diving into the Psalms of Lament — the raw, unfiltered prayers that prove screaming at Heaven might actually be the most faithful thing you can do.You’ll learn:
• Why anger at God doesn’t mean you lack faith
• How the Bible gives permission for honest, messy grief
• What Psalm 88 teaches us about prayers that end in darkness
• A simple 4-step guide to writing your own lament
• Why wrestling with God is a form of intimacy, not rebellionYou can watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/YPBhM13s96M

17 min - 43 | God Never Told Her to Stop Crying — And He Won't Tell You Either
Everyone tells you God will comfort you. Nobody tells you He lets you cry first.
In Jeremiah 31:15, Rachel is weeping for her children — and God doesn't rush her, rebuke her, or tell her to have more faith. He speaks tenderly after she grieves. That sequence is not an accident. It's permission.
If you've felt pressure to "get to the peace" before you're ready, this one's for you.
