Be Sad; Keep Going

Be Sad; Keep Going Helping you persevere through grief, loss, depression & more because you get to be sad but you HAVE to keep going

“Be Sad; Keep Going” is a powerful message that encourages us to embrace our emotions, even the difficult ones, and acknowledge that they are a natural part of the human experience. While it’s important to allow ourselves the space to feel sadness, it’s equally important to remember that tough times won’t last forever. By moving forward when we’re ready, we can find the strength to overcome challenges and grow stronger in the process.

Today is the 8th anniversary of losing my mom to su***de and instead of sitting around and sulking all day, me and my dad choose to indulge in her favorite things and celebrate her life on this day every year.

Now that’s not to say that sad feelings don’t or won’t come up, but we make an effort to shift the energy of the day she passed and the day she was born each year by enjoying the foods she loved while earthside.

Here’s your reminder that you can choose (in some ways) the energy that you bring to your loved ones anniversary dates. When it happened, it may have very well been THE worst day of your life, but you don’t HAVE to bring that energy to each day, every year moving forward. You CAN honor their existence, appreciate the love they gave you and celebrate the life they lived, guilt free.

Dance has always been a place where I can express myself and sometimes even fully let go of what I’m going through. In the last decade, it’s specifically been something that has helped me cope with major depressive disorder and anxiety and everything that comes with losing your own mom.

Janell probably still has no idea what her class did for me that day but I’m SO grateful she came to Milwaukee to share her talents back in 2017 because it really gave some place for my grief to go.

I don’t know that I would
have survived losing my
mom if I didn’t make the decision to let people help me.

Now it wasn’t all peaches and cream. I was still EXTREMELY angry, resentful and so much more so I didnt let everybody in but I did allow for some people to see me at my worst in order to help me get back to my best.

I’m so grateful to have been able to present on this and more at the Milwaukee County Better Ways to Cope Conference this past month. I had a chance to talk to local wellness professionals about the non-traditional coping mechanisms that helped me and offer insight into things that could help their clients. It was also a great reminder to make sure they’re checking in with themselves as wellness professionals are always taking care of others.

When you’re dealing with big emotions, I think one of the best things you can do is move your body.

At the Better Ways to Cope Conference, I had the chance to use half of my session to demonstrate one of my favorite coping methods in real time to with various wellness professionals in the Milwaukee area. It was a great opportunity for people who are ALWAYS caring for others to take a second and care for themselves and experience how this coping method may help the clients they serve as well.

Please understand that losing my mom has changed me forever.

My brain works differently. I view relationships differently. I experience joy differently. My trust is messed up. I can be cynical. I’m forever different since my mom died by su***de. And I’m not saying this for pity but more so to let people who can’t relate know that no matter what you see, we are not the same person you knew before our moms passed. We’re forever changed and forced to as the world moves on around us.

If you’re apart of the Motherless Child Crew, can you relate? What helping you get through?
