Anxiety and Grief: Navigating Loss While Managing a Family and Career [Ep 27]

In this episode we dive into the complex and deeply personal experience of navigating grief while managing high-functioning anxiety, especially as a mom. Grief is challenging enough on its own, but when you’re also trying to juggle the responsibilities of motherhood, work, and maintaining a sense of normalcy for your family, it can feel overwhelming. Join me as we explore the emotional rollercoaster that many moms face during these times—balancing the weight of loss, the pressure of daily life, and the fear of not being able to cope. This episode is an honest conversation about the struggles of grieving while trying to be strong for everyone else. I’ll share insights into what this journey looks like, and I'll also share six strategies to help you cope with anxiety while honoring your grief.
