The First Season Without My Dad: 10 Things Grief Has Taught Me

LISTEN TO PODCAST HERE

In this deeply personal episode of The Beautiful Messy Show, I’m sharing 10 things I’ve experienced since losing my dad — from the unexpected relief and guilt over moments I wish I could redo, to the pain of not having final words with him. I reflect on the comfort of our lake house, his favorite songs, boat rides, family traditions, pictures, and the little ways I still feel connected to him. As I navigate my first season without him, I’m learning that grief is messy, love doesn’t end, and healing isn’t linear. Through my Christian faith, I’m exploring heaven, near-death experiences, and the hope that death is not the end. I miss my dad more than words can express, but I hold onto the promise that I will see him again.
