Episode 32 - Grieving Through the Holidays (Week 3): Legacy & Creating New Memories

In Week 3 of the Grieving Through the Holidays Advent series, Lisa invites the community to shift from remembrance and fully embracing emotions into a sense of renewal. After honoring our loved ones in Week 1 and holding space for our emotions in Week 2, this Week 3 episode focuses on honoring legacy while intentionally creating new memories.Lisa shares about a new tradition that she's begun with her daughter through doing daily Advent puzzles together. This daily task has become a sacred moment of connection, presence, and love. Through this reflection, she explores how grief and joy can coexist, how small moments can become meaningful rituals, and how new traditions can help carry love forward without leaving the past behind.This week's practices include:A journal or voice-memo prompt:What new memory can you begin this year that makes space for both grief and joy? A doing prompt: Capture the new memories or traditions being made this week on camera, video, or artistic medium.This episode is a reminder that even in seasons of loss, we can create something new and filled with intention as we continue healing, one small step at a time.To follow along with the prompts throughout Advent, join the community on Instagram and Facebook @givinggriefgrace, or email "Advent" to [email protected] to receive the weekly reflections.Send us Fan MailThanks for tuning in, your time is valuable and we are so grateful for you! Please share this episode with a friend or someone who could use a hug.
