This surprised me this week…

Sometimes on the CNBC journey it can feel like the emotions we carry are ours alone.

I was reminded this week that “losing yourself” isn’t unique to childlessness, it’s a common human experience.

Hearing a mum in an over 50s group say she no longer knew who she was beyond her children sparked something in me. Not comparison, but perhaps a sense of connection.

For a moment, it lessened that sense of being an “other”.

Our journeys are different, but the feelings can overlap. And sometimes recognising that brings a small measure of comfort.

💙 If this resonates, you’re not alone.

Does this feeling sound familiar?

A different way to look at resilience in grief

Many people dislike the word resilient because it can imply toughness, strength, or “bouncing back” — and in the depths of CNBC grief, or after losing family members, most people feel anything but strong.
What if resilience isn’t something we are, but something we discover later?

In the moment, people feel broken, exhausted, overwhelmed, lost.
Resilience is almost never felt during the grief — it’s something we notice afterwards, when we look back and realise:
“I somehow kept going when I thought I couldn’t.”
“I learned to live with something I never wanted.”
“I grew in ways I didn’t choose but had to.”

Resilience in grief is not about bouncing back.
It’s about bending without breaking, breathing through the unthinkable, and choosing to keep living in a world that looks nothing like we imagined.
It’s quiet, invisible, uncelebrated — and often only recognised in hindsight.

For the CNBC community, especially, resilience can feel like a pressure or an expectation.
But it shouldn’t be.

Resilience isn’t:
being positive
pushing through
pretending you’re okay
being “strong” for others
Resilience is often simply this:

You’re still here. You’re still trying. You’re still learning to carry what life handed you without your consent.

“We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are.” – Oprah Winfrey

Grief changes us.
It challenges our old identity, routines, and even the dreams we once held.

But within that painful change lies the possibility of becoming someone new, someone shaped by compassion, courage, and deep self understanding.

Change doesn’t mean forgetting who we were. It means allowing ourselves to grow beyond the loss.

Today is World Kindness Day 💛

Yet kindness feels in short supply at times.
Anger simmers close to the surface, and “attack” too often becomes a form of defence.
But beneath that anger often lies pain, grief, or trauma.

It’s exhausting to live in fight mode.

Maybe kindness starts with self-awareness, and noticing when we’re triggered, taking a breath before reacting, and remembering that everyone is carrying something we can’t see.

Kindness doesn’t need to be showy, it can be quiet and reflective, offered with restraint and compassion.

Let’s make World Kindness Day ripple beyond today, and share this post as a gentle reminder that kindness starts within.

George, my Scottish Fold, loves his cat lolly pop. He started licking it gently… until he realised that would take forever. So he just went for it, and crunched the whole thing! 😹

It reminded me that sometimes, grief can keep us circling around life, afraid to fully taste it again. But there comes a moment when we’ve done enough healing to start embracing our future, to stop licking cautiously and take that brave bite. 💙

Thank you Anne Lamott for this quote ”Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes… including you.”

When you’re grieving, it’s okay to take time out — to unplug, rest, and simply be.
You don’t have to be productive to be healing. Sometimes the pause is the progress. 💫

If you’re struggling to take a pause, book in a free discovery call with me 📞

✨ A Shift in Perspective Can Change Everything ✨

Have you ever walked the same route but in the opposite direction? Suddenly, you notice things you never saw before that was always there, just unseen by us.

Our (CNBC) journey can be the same. We are wired to see things from one angle, shaped by societal expectations and our own past experiences. But what if there were more possibilities? More opportunities? More ways to live a fulfilling and meaningful life?

This is where coaching can help. It doesn’t change the path you’re on, but it can help you see it differently, uncovering options you may not have realised were right in front of you.

💬 Have you ever had a shift in perspective that changed how you saw your journey? Let me know in the comments. And if you’d like to explore what’s possible for you, let’s talk.
