    This is Motherhood, too. [REPLAY] Apr 29, 2024
    Show notes

    A special episode in honor of your motherhood. This entire month we are giving space for your unique story of motherhood, providing a little extra support and hope as you head into Mother's Day – a day that can be full of many complex emotions, often very painful.

    But more important than our resources and articles on the blog and special episodes here on the podcast, mostly, I want you to know, we want you to know that Your motherhood is motherhood, too.

    Even if it doesn't look like everyone else's, or like how you wish yours was.

    Even in the journey you're facing, this day is for you, too.

    In this special episode I am kicking off this month with a poem written by Meg Walker called This is Motherhood, Too. I pray it brings you comfort, hope and gives you space to honor your unique journey as a mother.

    For our best and most helpful resources for navigating Mother's Day, download our free Resource Bundle & Workbook: www.themorning.com/mothersday.


    Bonus. A Prayer for the Hardship of Holidays with Ashlee Proffitt Dec 24, 2023
    Show notes

    From Every Moment Holy, Volume II

    "Lead me, O Lord, through this layered confusion

    of celebration and lament, of things present,

    and things past. Let me make of this day a new thing.

    Though holidays might be hard days, O God,

    by the movement of your mercies

    may they also become holy days,

    teaching me again and again to entrust to you my many griefs,

    as often as these unavoidable days uncover and reveal them."

    "Now lead me, carry me, and walk beside me through this day,

    O Christ, shepherd of all my sorrows. In unexpected places, let me find joy.

    Amen."

    Bonus. 5 Tips for Preparing for the Holidays Nov 10, 2023
    Show notes

    As the holiday season rapidly approaches, pretty pictures from the early christmas decorators, gift guides for every gift giving situation and person, the text messages exchanging plans, recipes, and details for the holiday family gatherings this year, and invitations to all the holiday parties – no matter how hard you may be trying to hide from it, you have likely already been inundated by this fast approaching season. Where everyone seems about to burst with excitement and joy. Everyone except you. Grief has felt so lonely and in this moment it feels even more so. As if you are the only one who would rather skip the next two months and all it's festivities altogether.

    The holidays season, Thanksgiving into Christmas and New Years can be excruciating for families walking through grief after the loss of a baby. The season can feel impossible, overwhelming, scary or simply something to be avoided.

    I wanted to share a few quick resources with you to help you prepare for this season so you can move forward with hope.
