    Ep. 24 – Jen Bayreuther & Nina Buttermore; Live Podcast

    enSeptember 15, 2016

    About this Episode

    Jen, Nina, and I recorded this episode during our live podcast even September 3, 2016. It’s an honor to help these brave women share their stories of grace during times of transition. Nina is a mom of two wonderful girls, one with her and one in heaven, and has just transitioned to staying home after 16 years of working. It’s hard to not be seeing the students she’s worked with for the last several years as a speech therapist, but she is excited to be home with baby Lennox and spend the time caring for her, since she did not get that time with her first daughter, Audie. Nina finds grace everywhere in her more simpler life and is thankful for this season. Jen, on the other hand, has added a baby, a small business, and homeschooling responsibilities to her life this year. While her life may be crazier than it was before, Jen is glad for how enriched their lives are. She says their family is more busy with three little girls, a business, and homeschooling, but they are having so much fun.

    Ep 85 For When You're Ready to Rediscover Yourself

    Ep 85 For When You're Ready to Rediscover Yourself

    One of the most awkward and painful parts of grieving, one of those sneaky little things no one warns you about, is that you lose yourself to the grief. It’s as if parts of you died, too. You forget your strengths, your passions, and the things that used to bring you joy. And as you start to come out of the fog of the initial grief storm, you realize you have to rediscover who you were and decide who you’ll be.

    Ep 81 For When You Bring Grief into the New Year

    Ep 81 For When You Bring Grief into the New Year

    When the calendar changed from 2022 to 2023, many people took a deep breath, let out a sigh, and wished things were different. While others were brainstorming resolutions or picking a word to focus their intentions on, those of us who have experienced loss were accepting the fact that we were entering yet another year without loved ones. What do you do when a new year is less of a fresh start and more of a reminder that you’re bringing grief into the new year with you?
