This week, I had to put my 12-year-old dog down. The grief in this episode is specific to losing a pet. It’s therapeutic for me to share everything that I learned about grief in the last few weeks:

How grief brought my husband and I closer
How grief feels like mental gymnastics
Navigating tough conversations: when is the right time to put a dog down?
Coping mechanisms and how I managed my grief
Trying to turn my grief into gratitude

The biggest lesson was that I had to learn how to manage my grief because I still had to be a mom. Even though my world felt paused, life still moves around me and I have to show up.
Thanks for listening and if you had to go through the process of putting a dog down, I am so sorry and I know how hard it hurts.
