As I’ve been reviewing and editing my book, I realized something.
It will be two years this April.
I was in the thick of sudden, disorienting heartbreak.
Every song made me cry. Everything felt unfamiliar. Uncharted.
One day, driving with my daughter, a song came on the radio and I started to unravel. She looked at me and said,
“Oh Mom, it’s going to be okay — you haven’t hit your feather point yet.”
Then she played Feather by Sabrina Carpenter.
I didn’t understand at the time.
How could I? I was in shock.
Now I do.
The feather point is when everything feels lighter.
When clarity returns.
When the person you were grieving finally looks misaligned instead of monumental.
When even the songs that once crushed you start to feel clarifying.
That’s the feather point.
Alignment. Freedom. Lightness.
Years of prior inner work helped me recognize it when it arrived — and I kept showing up for myself.
Doing the work doesn’t prevent heartbreak.
It allows you to meet your feather point when it comes.
