Grief Coach Ebony

Let's be real, a motherless Mother's Day sucks.💔 It hits differently when you can’t make that first phone call of the morning.

But even in their absence, there is so much power in how we remember our moms.

So today, I’m honoring the woman who gave me everything in small, meaningful ways:
🕯️ lighting a candle
✍🏾 writing her a letter
💐 getting her flowers
🗣️ saying her name out loud

She deserves to still be remembered. Always.

If today feels heavy, quiet, or a little empty… I get it. To my sisters in grief, I see you.You don’t have to "power through" today.

And your love for her? It’s still there, it just needs a place for it to go. 🫶🏾

Mother's Day might not be so happy for some of us. It's ok to take a break from social media and all things Mother's Day. Sending love to those that need it. 💔

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mother's. Near and far. Alive on Earth, or alive in our hearts and memories. We love you and thank you. ♥️💐

Mother's Day is a celebration of all the moms, but for some it's a reminder of their loss.

My mom would always say, "I have cancer, cancer does not have me"! Even during her lowest of lows, she kept her spirit high!

Today is and I cannot let it go by without honoring my beautiful mother. She battled breast cancer for 12 years and she gave it a helluva fight! 🥊

always honor my mom and keep her memory alive. continue to provide love, support, and hope to everyone affected by cancer. You are not alone in your fight.
