In case you missed my new 5 Minute Grief Talks on YouTube, here's a little sneak peek so you can get a taste of what they're like! These are here to be a little boost of support, guidance, and inspiration you can watch or listen to whenever you need it. Quick, but impactful!

When grief sneaks up during the holidays, it can feel like the wind gets knocked out of you. In this short five-minute holiday grief talk, I'm diving into why these emotional “sneak attacks” happen and what you can actually do in the moment to ground yourself again.

You’ll hear gentle, practical guidance on:
✨ How to recognize holiday grief triggers before they spiral
✨ Why sudden grief waves are completely normal (and never a sign you’re “going backwards”)
✨ Giving yourself permission to shift plans, change your pace, or take space
✨ Small, supportive actions that can help you feel even a tiny bit better
✨ Remembering you’re not alone in navigating grief during the holiday season

This quickie episode is here to remind you that nothing is wrong with you for struggling right now. Holiday grief is real, it’s heavy, and it shows up whether we feel ready or not. But there are ways to soften the edges and move through those moments with more compassion for yourself.
