• Grief isn’t the problem; lacking the skills to process it is.
• We often internalize coping mechanisms modeled to us early in life — and they may not truly heal our pain.
• All types of loss (big and small, expected or unexpected) deserve acknowledgment and care.
• Healthy grieving can lead to perspective, peace, and even joy in remembering those we’ve lost.
• “We are made to heal” — your body, mind, and heart already know how
