In this solo episode, I talk about a topic that is often shut down in parenting communities. The topic of experiencing grief for various aspects of our parenting journey.

In our Instagram society, where we just see the highlights, the happy moments the joyful moments of parenting we can feel ‘wrong’, ‘broken’ and isolated because we aren’t feeling or experiencing these things.

There can be many times when we wish things were different.

I have often felt like this but have not had the language to talk about my experience until I came across the Five Gates of Grief by Francis Weller.

In this episode:

  • I talk you through these five gates of grief and how they could relate to you.
  • I share with you the three-step process I use when I am processing difficult emotions.
  • If you experience grief over aspects of your parenting journey then I hope that you feel seen by what I share in this episode.
