A truth I have been sitting with this week…

You can grieve something even while knowing it's time to let it go.

Grief isn't just about death. It's about endings. Chapters closing. Identities shifting. Leaving behind what once fit but doesn't anymore.
And here's what makes it complicated: You can be READY for the change and still need to mourn what you're losing.

Both things can be true at once.

If you're in a season of transition and feeling all the feelings…relief, sadness, excitement, grief, hope…that's not confusion. That's just being human.

I see you. 💙

You keep saying "I'll give it one more year"... but you said that last year too
You're great at your job, but it's draining you more than fulfilling you
You catch yourself daydreaming about what else you could be doing
People close to you have gently suggested you seem burnt out
You feel like you're compromising parts of yourself to stay
Here's the thing: Transitions are hard even when they're RIGHT. Especially when they're right.
If you're in this space—feeling stuck between what's familiar and what's calling you forward—you don't have to figure it out alone.

Grief during the holidays is real—for people we've lost, who we used to be, what we thought life would look like.
You don't have to perform joy you don't feel.
Try this: (or one of these)

✋Hand on heart, three breaths before gatherings
♥️Create a small ritual for who's missing
😮‍💨Say "this is hard" out loud
➡️Give yourself permission to leave early
✔️Let yourself feel what you feel

You can hold grief AND presence. You're doing it human.

NEW PROGRAM OFFERING -

StrongHer - Because leading well begins with living well.

StrongHer is a year-long wellness and leadership journey created for women pastors (in their 40s and 50s) who want to live well so they can lead well.

Through a blend of faith, fitness, and practical strategies, (coaching) this program equips women to build strength, resilience, and joy in every area of life.

When women thrive in body, mind, and spirit, their leadership and ministries flourish too.

Early morning to get to the airport and head to the Healing Beyond Borders conference in MN this week!!! Looking forward to being with the healing community and re-connect with many…AND more learning. Also looking forward to being in a place that still feels like home…but right now I am tired. (And looking “haggard”) …Glad I am not flying the plane

Thinking about how to lead people through the journey of grief…how Grief coaching offers a gentle, supportive space to help process loss, understand emotions, and begin to journey through the maze of healing. You do not need to walk alone. EMBody Wisdom is working with colleagues to lead an online support group. If you would like to experience some support on the journey let me know.

I think this is not to say prayers mean nothing, it is a call to understand that prayers can and do and should drive us to follow where God leads us.
