Hello From the Other Side of Grief

This week on For the Love of Mr. Jones, I’m talking about what happened when I finally gave myself permission to rest. After spending the weekend away from my kids, hiking with my cousin, eating by the lake, and slowing down mentally, I realized how long I’ve truly been operating in survival mode. When I picked my babies back up, I felt more patient, more present, and honestly… more like myself again. But with that rest also came grief. I opened up about feeling cheated after losing Eric so soon, how Hello by Adele hits completely different now that I’m a widow, and how grief changes the way you hear music, experience life, and carry responsibility. I also talk about reconnecting with God through Bible study, the importance of community while grieving, and learning that rest is not laziness, it’s necessary. This episode is for anyone carrying grief silently while still trying to show up for everybody else. contact: [email protected]   website: www.msjonespodcast.com
