I would rather be HAPPY than RIGHT.

Lessons come from all things, no matter their shape or size, animate or inanimate.

How you do one thing is how you do everything. So, if you can change one pattern, you can change others.

I always thought going to a grief conference meant listening to other people’s pain and sorrow—and me, curling up in a fetal position and crying my eyes out.

When dealing with grief, however, Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness can feel incredibly elusive. It feels more like Death, Imprisonment, and Sadness—all the time.

Where your focus goes, your energy flows.

Personally, I feel this is a false dichotomy.

Everyone has value.

Now, making that phone call to my coach was really vulnerable and scary.

I took a walk down the “Should-have, Would-have, Could-have” path.

If I continued to hold on to the belief that “the pain I feel is the last thing I have of her,” then letting go of the pain would feel like letting go of her.

Many people refer to this forgetfulness and lack of focus as “Grief Brain.” I don’t particularly care for the expression.

You do not need to see the entire staircase all at once

It reminds me of how essential it is to make sure that you are supporting your body, not just to manage your grief, to manage your life
