Emotions are meant to be felt

Emotions are meant to be felt

"It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength." – Maya Angelou

Grieving openly teaches our children that emotions are meant to be felt, not hidden.

💛 When we allow ourselves to express sadness, love, and even moments of joy, we show them that strength isn't about pretending to be okay—it's about embracing all that makes us human.

🌱 Today’s Gentle Reflection:
How do you model both strength and vulnerability for your children? Do you allow them to see your tears, hear your memories, and know that healing takes time?

🌱 Today’s Gentle Challenge:
Share a moment with your child (or journal for yourself) about a memory of your lost little one. Let them see that love and grief can coexist. 💛

Join me on this journey as we create space for healing, one step at a time. 🌿
