I just lost my mother-in-law this week, one of the most important people in my life for almost the last 40 years. So I’m sitting right in the middle of grief and joy, and trust me when I say, it's a very hard place to sit.

I'm missing her deeply, while still trying to show up for life around me and the people I love. And that tension can feel confusing, uncomfortable, and filled with guilt. Because while the world around us keeps spinning in spite of our loss, our world has come to a sudden stop and it's so hard to know when it's ok to start moving forward again.

So if you're like me and you’re holding grief and joy right now, you’re definitely not doing it alone. Listen to this week’s episode of The Survivors Podcast to learn more about how we learn to allow grief and joy to coexist.
