In this deeply personal two-part series, I open up about two of the most defining emotional experiences of my life — navigating mom guilt and processing grief two years after losing my dad.

In Part 1, I share honest reflections on the constant balancing act of motherhood, the invisible pressure to "do it all," and how I'm learning to release guilt and embrace grace.

In Part 2, I talk about grief — how it changes but never fully fades, what healing has looked like over the past two years, and the surprising ways loss can expand our hearts.

If you've ever felt weighed down by guilt, grief, or both, this conversation is for you. It's about love, release, and remembering that healing isn't linear — it's human.
