Description
Welcome to Your Quiet Moment. I'm so glad you're here. Today I want to talk about something that doesn't always get named directly, because when we do name it, something tender opens up that we don't always know how to hold. What I'm referring to is this: the experience of grieving a version of yourself. Not a person who died, but a version of you that existed once, that felt real and certain, and that is simply gone now. Maybe it was the version who believed certain things about the world. Maybe it was the version who was certain about what came next. Maybe it was the version who could do things you can no longer do, or who carried hope you now struggle to locate. This grief is real, and it's worth talking about honestly.
