Father’s Day Grief
Father’s Day is a tricky day for me. I’m going to do something nice for myself and I hope you do too.
Birthday grief
Today is my 46th birthday and I’ve spent 28 birthdays without my mom. A few thoughts on being a motherless daughter on her birthday.
What the heck are secondary losses?
I’ve been thinking a lot about the concept of secondary losses. What are they anyway? How can we get more conversation around the impact of these on our lives?

We have a lot to say about grief
We have a lot to say about grief, and still, in 2023, too few places to say them.
Here’s to raising more grief awareness in 2023
Big things are coming for the Motherlove Project in 2023. When I started the Project in 2020, I had no idea what might happen but I knew I was called to start something that allowed me to share my story and others’ as well. I couldn’t have imagined over 80 beautiful souls from around the world would share their stories with the Project. I feel called to push harder and longer for more grief awareness, grief education, connection and community in 2023!
I’m grateful for my grief
I am grateful for my grief. I know that probably sounds…strange, but I am. I wish my mom was still here, there are so many days that I wish I could call her and hear her voice. But I’m starting to see my grief as a gift, something I have learned so much from, that I’m still learning from.
Strength in numbers
As women who have lost their mothers, we understand grief. We’re connected despite our differences and we have strength in our numbers.
