How to Offer Comfort to Those Who Are Hurting (Without Making It About Us)

This is about the challenging topic of grief and supporting loved ones through loss. I share insights on how to genuinely help friends and family experiencing profound sadness, emphasizing the importance of showing up consistently and authentically. I offer practical advice like saying the loved one's name, providing specific help, and being present long after the initial mourning period. I also discuss how to help children navigate grief, teaching them compassion and emotional awareness. My message is clear: grief is a lifelong journey, and we shouldn't shy away from supporting those in pain. I stress that it's not about saying the perfect thing, but about making people feel loved, seen, and supported. By leaning in during difficult times, we create a compassionate environment that helps people heal. My goal is to provide tools and understanding for moms dealing with loss and supporting others through their grief.
