Season 1 | Episode 22: A Fresh Start, Selling Our Home

In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode, Stephanie opens up about one of the biggest shifts in her life after loss, saying goodbye to the home she shared with Jeff. With courage and clarity, she recounts the emotional process of deciding to sell the house, recognizing that while the memories were sacred, the space had become too large for the new chapter she was stepping into. From her solo trip to Antigua, where the decision crystallized, to her graceful transition from homeowner to renter, Stephanie shares what it felt like to begin letting go of the physical anchors of her past while holding onto the love they represented. As she navigated the logistics of moving, a new love story was quietly unfolding. Enter Tim, an unexpected yet welcome presence who brought light, laughter, and the possibility of new beginnings. With honesty and vulnerability, Stephanie shares the evolution of their relationship, from first dates filled with hesitation to a pivotal moment at a country concert where she felt, maybe for the first time in a long time, that she could breathe again. This episode is a powerful reflection on what it means to grieve, to grow, and to embrace life again. It reminds us that healing isn’t about forgetting, it’s about honoring the past while making space for the beauty still to come. 💛 Join me as we weave happiness through the grief.
