Grief + Growth

Grief is part of my DNA.
It’s not just something that happened to me — it’s how I became Sooo Human.

 

On June 7, 2024, I lost my mom.
And with her, I lost a part of who I was.
But I also discovered parts of me I didn’t know were there —
resilience, tenderness, and a deeper capacity to hold space for both unbearable pain and unbelievable love.

 

Grief is surreal.
It’s brutal.

It's wildly unpredictable.
It’s quiet when you want noise, and loud when you need silence.
It’s not just about death — it’s about change, loss, letting go, and learning to live with the ache.

​

I’ve learned we don’t move on from grief.
We move with it.
And in that movement — the showing up, the crying in the car, the laughing at something they would’ve loved — we begin to grow.

​

This isn’t a grief site, but grief is in everything I do:
How I mother, how I create, how I show up.
It’s woven into my healing, my humor, and my hope.

​

I talk about loss honestly, without trying to fix or fast-forward it.
Because grief is proof of love — and love is always worth feeling.

​

And honestly, most days, I just really miss my mom.
