8. I Let People Help Me
I stopped saying “I’m fine” and let others bring food, sit with me, and hold space for my grief.
9. I Practiced Daily Gratitude
Even on the darkest days, I looked for something to appreciate—a memory, a smile, the sound of my granddaughter’s laugh.
10. I Stopped Living in the “What-Ifs”
I couldn’t change the past—but I could choose peace in the present.
11. I Stepped Back From Being the Caregiver
For the first time, I let someone else care for me without guilt.
12. I Told My Stories
I became a published author in four books, sharing stories I had buried for years.
13. I Spoke on an International Stage
Even in grief, I stood up and used my voice—and won an award.
14. I Invested in Breath & Energy Work
Not just for my clients, but for myself. My healing mattered, too.
15. I Allowed Myself to Cry—Every Day
Tears weren’t weakness. They were a release.
16. I Talked About My Son
We kept his memory alive through stories, laughter, and shared love.
17. I Let Go of What I Couldn’t Control
The “why,” the “how,” the guilt, the regrets. I placed them in God’s hands, again and again.
18. I Journaled My Truth
Some pages made no sense. Others were raw and unfiltered. All of them set me free.
19. I Celebrated the Small Wins
Getting dressed. Laughing. Making it through a day without collapsing. These moments mattered.
20. I Used Breathwork & NLP to Process My Grief
It helped me release what my mind couldn’t explain.
21. I Used Red Light Therapy
It wasn’t about “fixing” myself. It was a small way to remind my body it was safe.
