Expect the Unexpected

In this final episode of the year, I explore what it really means to expect the unexpected, especially when grief and life don’t follow a neat timeline. Marking the eight-year anniversary of losing Jim, I share honest reflections on how unpredictable waves can still hit, why “being strong” doesn’t mean being unaffected, and how readiness matters more than control. With practical, real-world perspective, I offer a grounded way to move into the new year without pressure or toxic positivity, focusing instead on anchors that help you keep going when life gets messy.Join us at Shorts Brewery in Elk Rapids on January 7th for Beers for Tears Benefit Bingo -And if you can’t make it, One meal can make a difference❣️On January 7th, Panda Express is donating 28% of online orders to Griefhab — helping us support people through grief, loss, and the days and challenges no one sees.Use code 9011147 in the fundraiser box at checkout!You can reach out anytime: ⁠[email protected]⁠Remember to ⁠Join the Griefhab Family:⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/griefhab7⁠Join Team Ruthless - for multiple support groups every week and EVERY holiday! https://forms.gle/Zw639P7htwg2qFDH6Become a Faces of Grief: Surviving Pet Loss Author:[email protected]
