“Grief showed me what’s important in life.”

Grief has a way of reshaping us. In the beginning, it’s ever-present and overwhelming.

But over time, it changes—reminding us of love, of what truly matters, of the fragile beauty of being here at all.

Grief doesn’t disappear; it revisits us, sometimes softly, sometimes with force. And yet, it teaches us to live with deeper gratitude and clarity.

What has grief showed you about life?

New Series: Talking About Tomorrow

On the Guiding Grief Podcast, host Nicholas J Welzenbach opens up an honest space for the conversations we often put off—but deeply need to have.

As a funeral professional, Nicholas knows how difficult it can be to talk about planning for our later years. That’s why this new series brings in three experts—Mani Mortezaei (Tailored Transitions), Shannon Corpuz (Pence Financial), and Laura Nenada (Senior Helpers)—to share practical insights and resources for families facing these decisions.
Because starting the conversation today can make tomorrow a little easier.

🎧 The first episode of the Talking About Tomorrow series on the Guiding Grief Podcast will drop very soon.

Grief isn’t tidy. It doesn’t move in straight lines or neat stages.

The truth is, grief is a mess. It loops, it circles, it doubles back. It can feel heavy one moment and lighter the next, only to knock you off your feet again. No two people grieve in the same way, and even within ourselves, grief shifts and changes over time.

Grief is meandering. It’s unpredictable. It’s deeply personal.

And that’s okay.

Wherever you find yourself in grief is exactly where you need to be.

Losing a parent often comes with a tangled mix of emotions — anticipatory grief, caretaking, relief, guilt, love, and sorrow.

The article in SELF - “9 People Share How They Coped With the Crushing Pain of Losing a Parent” - reminds us that grief doesn’t follow a straight path, and it’s okay to feel everything. (Link to the article is in the comments.)

If you’ve lost a parent (or are preparing for that inevitability), you’re not alone.

Grief is not something to “get past” so much as something to learn to live alongside.

If you've lost a parent, what advice would you offer?

Losing a beloved pet leaves a void that’s hard to fill—but sometimes, unexpected moments offer gentle hope.

Recently, Lori Watson, grieving the loss of her dog Scout, discovered Scout’s brother, Ringo, was in need of a home.
So, Lori decided to adopt him.

On their drive back home, Ringo rested his head on her shoulder—just as Scout used to do.

That simple, tender gesture brought Lori to tears and "confirmed his spot" in her heart, reaffirming that love endures, even through grief. Though Ringo is his own dog—calm and quiet where Scout had been energetic—he brings comfort, continuity, and a new, equally special bond.

Moving through grief isn’t about replacing what was lost; it’s about embracing new possibilities that remind us of what we loved.
