When someone has experienced a significant loss, what’s the first thing most of us ask?
“How are you?”

It’s a kind question.
But it’s also one of the hardest to answer.
How am I… compared to yesterday?
Compared to before they died?
Compared to what people expect?

The truth is, many grieving people don’t even know how they are.
Some days they feel hopeful.
Some days they’re overwhelmed.
Some days they laugh and then feel guilty for laughing.
Some days they feel absolutely nothing at all.

Instead of asking, “How are you?” perhaps a better question is:
“What’s been the hardest part this week?”

Or simply:
“I’m here if you’d like to talk.”

You don’t need the perfect words.
Your presence matters far more than your wording.

💛 I’d love to hear your thoughts. What’s something someone said or did after a loss that genuinely helped you?

23/06/2026

One of the most frustrating pieces of advice people receive after a loss is:
“You need to move on.”

Move on from what exactly?
The person you loved?
The life you had?
The future you expected?

I don’t believe healing is about moving on.
I think it’s about moving forward.

There’s a difference.

Moving on suggests leaving something behind.
Moving forward means taking your experiences, your memories and your love with you while continuing to build a meaningful life.

In my experience, the women who struggle most aren’t failing at grief.
They’re often putting enormous pressure on themselves to be “over it” by now.
To stop thinking about it.
To stop feeling sad.
To stop missing what was.

But grief doesn’t work to a timetable.
Whether the loss happened six months ago or six years ago, your feelings are valid.
Healing isn’t about forgetting.

It’s about learning how to carry your loss without it carrying you and how to grow around it.

💛 What do you think? Do people put too much pressure on themselves to “move on”?

A lot of women come to me asking:
“How do I stop feeling like this?”
It’s understandable.
When we’re hurting, we naturally want the pain to stop.
But sometimes a more helpful question is:
“What is this feeling trying to tell me?”

Loneliness might be telling you that you need connection.

Exhaustion might be telling you that you’ve been carrying too much.

Anxiety might be telling you that something important needs attention.

Sadness might be asking to be acknowledged instead of pushed away.

Not every difficult emotion is a problem to get rid of.

Sometimes it’s a message.

In my coaching and hypnotherapy work, helping women understand those messages is often where real change begins.

💛 Which emotion has been showing up most for you lately?

We live in a world that loves progress.
Move on.
Get over it.
Stay positive.
Keep busy.
But what if the reason you feel stuck isn’t because you’re failing?

What if your mind is simply trying to make sense of something significant?
Loss.
Change.
Disappointment.
A chapter ending before you were ready.

Some things aren’t solved quickly.
They need to be understood.

One thing I often explain in coaching and hypnotherapy sessions is that the brain doesn’t always respond to emotional events on the timetable we’d like.
Healing isn’t linear.
It can be messy.
Slow.
Frustrating.

But that doesn’t mean nothing is happening.
Sometimes what looks like standing still is actually processing.

💛 Be gentle with yourself this week.

This is something I don’t think we talk about enough.
After a loss, people often assume we’re grieving the person.
And of course we are.

But sometimes we’re also grieving who we were when they were here.
The wife.
The daughter.
The friend.
The partner.
The person who laughed more.
The person who felt safer.
The person who had plans.

When someone important leaves our lives, part of our identity can feel shaken too.
That’s why grief can feel so disorientating.
You’re not only learning how to live without them.

You’re learning who you are now.

In my coaching and hypnotherapy work, this is often where the deepest healing happens, not in “getting over” the loss, but in rediscovering yourself alongside it.

💛 If this resonates, I’d love to hear your thoughts below or in a private message.

Some seasons of life feel confusing because nothing fits anymore.
You’re no longer the person you were.
But you’re not yet the person you’re becoming.

That can happen after:
* bereavement
* divorce
* children leaving home
* redundancy
* retirement
* illness
* major life changes

Many women arrive in my coaching and hypnotherapy sessions saying:
“I don’t know who I am anymore.”

What they’re often describing isn’t failure.
It’s transition.
The old chapter has ended.
The new one hasn’t fully begun.

And while that space can feel uncomfortable, it’s often where the most meaningful growth happens.

You don’t have to have all the answers right now.

Sometimes the next step is simply giving yourself permission to explore who you are becoming.

💛 If life feels uncertain right now, you’re welcome to message me.

A lot of people secretly worry that healing means leaving someone behind.

That if they laugh again…
make plans…
feel hopeful…
or enjoy life…
they’re somehow forgetting.

But that’s not how grief works.
Love doesn’t disappear because your life continues.

In fact, one of the most powerful things I see in my coaching and hypnotherapy sessions is when women realise they don’t have to choose between remembering and living.

They can do both.
The love.
And the future.

The sadness.
And the joy.

The loss.
And the possibility of a new chapter.

Healing isn’t about letting go of the person.
It’s about learning how to carry their memory without carrying quite so much pain.

One thing many women tell me after a loss or major life change is:
“I know I should be moving forward, but my mind just won’t let it go.”

They replay conversations.
Overthink decisions.
Lie awake at night.
Feel stuck in the same loops of worry, guilt or sadness.
And then they start wondering what’s wrong with them.
Usually?
Nothing.

Your brain is trying to make sense of something that changed your world.
Through both my coaching and hypnotherapy work, I see how loss affects far more than emotions.

It can affect sleep, concentration, confidence, motivation and the nervous system itself.

Sometimes people don’t need more advice.
Sometimes they need support that helps the mind and body feel safe enough to stop being on constant alert.

That’s often where healing begins.

💛 If this resonates with you, feel free to send me a message. I’m always happy to chat.

I think one of the biggest shocks after loss is how lonely it can become later on.
Not at first.
At first there are messages.
Cards.
Check-ins.
People asking how you are.

But eventually life moves on for everyone else.
And meanwhile you are still carrying:
* memories
* sadness
* confusion
* anger
* guilt
* conversations in your head that never seem to settle

So many women start pretending they’re “better” simply because they don’t want to keep bringing it up.

They become good at looking "normal" while feeling completely different inside.

That kind of emotional loneliness is exhausting.

Especially when you’re also trying to keep functioning, working, parenting, coping and carrying everyone else too.

You do not have to carry it all quietly.

You still have to:
* work
* reply to messages
* make decisions
* look after people
* function

while part of you is trying to process something enormous emotionally.

That takes energy people cannot see.
Grief is not just sadness.
It affects:
* concentration
* sleep
* hormones
* confidence
* motivation
* patience
* memory
* the nervous system

This is why healing takes time.

Not because you are weak.
Because you are human.
