Silent Grief Podcast

Forgiveness is a huge topic and most often the burden to fogive is placed on the innocent person. This is true when a child passes away due to the negligence or direct fault of someone else. For example, a drunk driving event often will claim the life of an innocent person. Do we really need to forgive someone who is at fault and shows no remorse? 

In this episode, we break down this topic and talk about how forgiveness is often weaponized against innocent people in the name of "healing." We think there is a better way. Join us for this important conversation.

Holiday grief is when we feel heavy grief around the holidays. This is so, so common for parents who have lost children. The holidays can be a dreaded time because all the laughter and celebration is a constant reminder that our child is no longer with us, and they are no longer here to celebrate with us. A time of year that once was full of joy can become a time that is depressing and sad. 

We want to offer some encouraging words and give you some things that may help lessen the pain and sadness you are feeling during this Christmas season. Join us as we share some ways that we have managed our grief during the holiday season.
