Vacation and Grief: Ep 27

Warrior Moms: Surviving Child Loss

Planning a summer vacation should be joyful, right? But what happens when the simple thought of packing your bags brings on a wave of anxiety and sadness? Join us as we unravel our own emotional journeys through vacation planning. Amy and I candidly share the frustration, excitement, and sometimes overwhelming grief that accompany these family trips. From the struggle to sync schedules for our podcast to the bittersweet moments of joy upon arriving at our destinations, we don’t hold back on the complex feelings that vacations can entail, especially when dealing with loss.
In this heartfelt episode, we discuss practical strategies to manage vacation-related stress and embrace family time, even when it's tough. By opening up about our personal experiences, we emphasize the importance of being present and having open conversations with our children about their expectations and feelings.
