In this special episode, Ashley Opliger shares a heartfelt message and prayer for mothers who are grieving during the holidays. This Christmas season was supposed to be a time of joy and making memories with your baby, but now is filled with overwhelming sadness and pain.
Ashley shares practical ideas for "coping with hope" through the holidays when grief is magnified and our hearts miss our babies in Heaven more than we can stand. With a focus on grace and communication, Ashley gives advice on how to navigate holiday gatherings and relationships with friends and family. This hope-filled episode will leave you celebrating the reason for the season—Jesus, the baby born in a manger who gives us hope to see our babies in Heaven one day.
In this episode, Ashley discusses:
- How to survive the holiday/winter season
- Giving yourself and others grace to strengthen your relationships
- Protecting your heart and putting up boundaries
- Why it's okay to say "no" or do things differently this year (and why you shouldn't feel guilty about it)
- Creating space to grieve
- How to set up our families for success to support and love us well
- Traditions and ways to honor your baby in Heaven for Christmas
- Allowing yourself to "hold both" and feel both happiness and sorrow
- Scripture and Christmas songs that bring hope in this season
