I think we need to erase the narrative that men have to be this manly macho figure in our lives who carry no emotion. That is wrong and not what the world needs. We need to all be treated like equals who are allowed to feel any and every emotion. Regardless of your gender. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Checking in with yourself as one of the hardest things I think I've ever had to do.

Finding joy is hard. It could be the smallest thing or the largest thing. Everything in between as well. I hope I encourage you to find that joy in your daily life.

It comes and goes as it pleases. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Forgiveness looks different for everyone. It is one of the first steps in my healing process that I have replayed over and over again. Some days I'm still filled with so much anger that it consumes me. Other days I try to connect to my higher power and know that forgiveness is going to only help me heal more. I encourage trying this is it something that you're struggling with. When you're ready and the time is right. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
Too often I think that we get caught up in missing our person and what they would be doing if they were here that I think we miss out on the opportunities life offers us. I'd be lying to you if I said that my grief got in the way of happiness. Just like anything there are days where it is harder than others. I invite you to try to live more in the moment with me in 2021. Creating a life full of opportunities and living in the moment. IG @hellkerr Email

Grieving a living person is one of the hardest forms of grief to go through. This person may not be in your life for several different reasons. Perhaps it's for the better. Perhaps it's something that happened not on your terms. Either way those feelings are still valid, it's hard to watch that person continue to live their life without you. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
