Women normally suffer more than men do, and feelings of sadness may be more pronounced among stay-at-home parents whose lives were organized around meeting the everyday needs of their children.” “Empty Nest Syndrome” Psychology Today I invite you to consider the...

What Prevents You From Grieving
According to best-selling author and shame researcher, Brene Brown: “The more difficult it is for us to articulate our experiences of loss, longing, and feeling lost to the people around us, the more disconnected and alone we feel.

Why We Grieve
"Each person's grief is as unique as their fingerprint. But what everyone has in common is that no matter how they grieve, they share a need for their grief to be witnessed.

The need is for someone to be fully present to the magnitude of their loss without trying to point out the silver lining."
