Gratitude, Grief, and What’s Ahead on A Place of Yes

from A Place of Yes | A Grief Podcast · host Heather Straughter

It’s the week of Thanksgiving, and instead of a regular episode, Heather is taking a moment to pause, reflect, and share what’s on her mind. In this short solo message, she talks about the complicated feelings that come up around the holidays — the mix of gratitude and grief, the presence and the absence — and reminds us that it’s okay to feel all of it.She also shares a preview of next week’s special episode with her husband Brian, recorded just before the 15th anniversary of their son Jake’s passing. It’s one of the most personal conversations they’ve shared — a tender, unscripted reflection on love, loss, and the questions we don’t always ask each other out loud.Thank you for being part of this show, this space, and this community. We’re so grateful you’re here.Resources & Ways to Connect Email Heather: [email protected] Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aplaceofyespodcast Jake’s Help from Heaven: http://jakeshelpfromheaven.org/ Jake’s Help on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jakeshelp Jake’s Help on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jakeshelpfromheaven Watch More Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@aplaceofyespodcast
