So, we all get to this place in grief..sometimes more than once..where everything just starts feeling… stuck. It’s like, Is this life now? Is this all there is? Because every day looks exactly the same. You wake up, do the things you have to do, go to bed, wake up, repeat. And at some point, you realize you’re not even living… you’re just existing.

That’s what I call grief-induced Groundhog’s Day.

So today, we’re going to talk about how to start breaking out of it.

Here’s what we’re going to cover:

  1. Why this feeling hits so hard at the beginning of the year..what’s actually happening in your brain after weeks of holiday grief.
  2. How small shifts can jolt your brain out of autopilot..and why even the tiniest changes can help.
  3. Examples of easy ways to start making those shifts..so you can start today if you wanted.
  4. How this connects to small wins in grief..because momentum, even tiny momentum, matters.

Alright, let’s get into it.
