71. Finding Light After Loss

Have you ever wondered why grief feels like it will swallow you whole and how you’re ever meant to feel “normal” again?

Grief changes you. In this episode, I share one of the most personal chapters of my life, the night my beautiful mum passed away, and how that loss shaped not only my heart, but my purpose.

I read Chapter Eight from my book The Grateful 3 Approach to Life, where I open up about caring for my mum through terminal illness, the anger and anxiety that followed her passing, and how I found myself stuck between depression and frustration for years. I talk honestly about panic attacks, feeling lost in the world, and the moment I realised I had a choice. Stay stuck, or start again.

If you’re walking through grief right now, or supporting someone who is, this episode will help you understand the stages of grief, how to stop living in the pain cycle, and how gratitude can gently guide you back to light. I share the exact three-step process that helped me move forward, without pretending the loss didn’t hurt. You will learn how to face your grief, reflect on the lessons, and find three small things to be grateful for, even on the hardest days.

If this episode touched something within you, I’d love to hear from you. You’re welcome to come and connect with me on Instagram @annmarielord_ and share, only if it feels right for you, where you are in your grief journey at this moment.
