It’s a common (but harmful) belief that moving forward means you’re ‘moving on’
Even though it’s not true, the idea of healing can feel like “moving on” and forgetting.
And since that’s the last thing you want after losing your loved one, you avoid actively healing and feeling better.
Some common “avoidance” methods…
- Working 24/7
- Drinking a bottle of wine every night
- Shopping for clothes you’ll never wear
- Exercising to the point of collapse
- Staying in bed and sleeping all day
But all that avoiding can result in you…
- Having no interest in anything
- Not wanting to face the world
- Not being able to do normal things in life
- Not having any idea what to do with the rest of your life
You feel like you might be stuck in grief forever.
And you wonder, “Is it normal to be in this much pain after 4 years?“
Avoiding is part of surviving… but in between avoiding, you try all the things that are supposed to help.
Since you hope to be a functioning person again, you’ve probably tried any number of things to process your grief. Maybe you…
But none of these things worked.
If you’ve done everything you can think of and are left wondering, “WHY does it still hurt so bad?” …
Take heart knowing this,
Grief and love are interconnected.
Love perseveres… it doesn’t end… so grief doesn’t either.
The good news is, there is a way to heal and let go of pain, without letting go of your loved one.
Who am I to say you can move forward without moving on?
Hi, I’m Jennifer …
When my infant son passed away in 2003, I thought I’d never be happy again.
I found some relief in books, journaling, a support group, and therapy.
At the time of my son’s death I worked in a corporate job and I loved my business career. But after my son died (and divorce and single-parenting), I felt called to do more to help women going through the hardest times in their lives and doing it alone.
I quit my corporate job and became a certified life coach. My new career gave me a sense of purpose and fulfillment, but I still carried (and hid) the deep pain over the loss of my son.
It wasn’t until 2020, 17 years after his passing, that I had a transformative healing experience, when I trained for certification as a Grief Specialist. The magic of this program is why I’m here… to share it with as many people as I can reach.
I’ll soon have a book and an online course out in the world to facilitate healing for as many people as possible.
But in the meantime, I want to interact with grievers, with YOU, so that you can not just intellectually know but truly BELIEVE:
- Life has so much more in store for you than just surviving and pretending you’re okay
- You don’t have to worry about what other people expect – they mean well but they’re wrong
- You can climb out of the deep dark hole, find your path forward, and embrace and enjoy life again.
Even if you’ve been stuck for 5, 8, or 10+ years, you can have a grief breakthrough and not only want to participate in life again, but actually make progress towards new goals and dreams!
You don’t have to figure this out on your own.
