Ep 57: Layers of Loss
In this heartfelt episode of the Midlife Worthy Moms podcast, Kim explores the complex layers of loss that we all experience throughout our lives. With warmth and empathy, she explores how seemingly small losses can accumulate over time, creating a heavy emotional burden that may suddenly tumble down like a game of Jenga. Kim shares insights on various types of losses, from job changes and divorces to the subtle shifts in holiday experiences as our children grow up.
Drawing from her own experiences, Kim offers a compassionate perspective on grief stacking and encourages listeners to approach their own losses – and those of others – with understanding and empathy. She emphasizes the importance of building a strong foundation to navigate life's challenges, highlighting her faith as a crucial element in finding purpose through difficult times.
The episode provides practical advice for processing emotions, normalizing feelings, and finding opportunities for growth amidst loss. Kim also addresses the unique challenges of understanding and supporting our grown children through their own layers of loss, reminding listeners that we can't always know or fix everything our kids experience.
With gentle guidance and relatable examples, Kim invites empty nest moms to embrace self-compassion, forgiveness, and a renewed perspective on life's transitions. This episode serves as a comforting reminder that while loss is inevitable, it can also be a catalyst for personal growth and deeper connections.
