My Everyday Life Week 19

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 19

It’s Mother’s Day today which can be a tricky time if you’re grieving.  The best way to move through grief is to talk about it and share the experience with someone who understands.  After many months in the making, I am happy to share that I made a podcast with my friend MC called Keep Grief Weird

Keep Grief Weird! Podcast with Tracy Benjamin and Dr. MC McDonald about GRIEF! https://keepgriefweird.substack.com/

You can listen to our first episode on Spotify or subscribe to our Substack, where it will be delivered to your email. Our first episode begins with my grief origin story.  I share my experience of losing my Mom on Thanksgiving and what the first year was like without her. This is just very beginning of many conversations we’ll have about being women in our 40s living our lives without our Moms (and in MC’s case, both parents).  Grief is weird and we’re here to keep it that way. 

Thanks so much for your support and for listening! If today is a hard day for you, please know you’re not alone! 

Anywho-

Yesterday, I picked a wildflower bouquet!
