Episode Description

How has Dad Always helped you redefine fatherhood after your loss?

Welcome to this mid-week episode!

As we're inching closer to Father's Day (Sunday, June 16, 2024), I thought it would be helpful to address the elephant in the room when it comes to our experience as loss dads.

Here are some tips to implement:

1. Keep an open mind. The story you're creating in your head about how the day will turn out is simply a narrative you're creating in your head. The actual day may turn out to be just fine.

2. Allow yourself to feel what you're feeling in the moment on Father's Day, whatever those emotions may be.

3. Be honest with yourself and those around you, and make your feelings known.

I hope these tips are helpful.

Sincerely,
Kelly

Me and my Dad Dr. Ronica Perez Conversations of thought. Both my Dad and I believe that we are all connected. These conversations that we have are usually over the phone or with a glass of wine at my home. Where these thoughts come from… not quite sure. But they sure make interesting conversations. I hope that they encourage you to open yourself up to your own thoughts, dreams and experiences... because I believe the Universe, God, Angels or other spirits are always giving us guidance.
