Episode 95: Fighting for Joy Without Your Mother
Today I’m privileged to bring you a tender story of grief from a local friend of mine, Mary Glowacki. Mary was only 15 years old when her mother died. There are not too many things for young girl to face worse than losing her mom and having to grow up without a mother’s distinctive instruction and special care. When you face a future without such a key figure there to help and guide, life can become a real fight for joy. It’s been 40 years since Mary’s mother died, but as you hear her share today, you will get a glimpse into just how impacting and long lasting grief truly is. I know you’re going to love hearing Mary’s heart and be helped by her insight, experience, wisdom, and vulnerability. As she shares some of the practical ways that she fights for joy, I think you'll be encouraged in your own difficult situations. Thank you for listening today!
*Don't forget that as a Fighting for Joy listener you can receive 10% off of your first month of counseling services from BetterHelp, my podcast sponsor. Check out my link at betterhelp.com/fightingforjoy. Counseling can be such a huge help in this broken world and a major tool in the fight for joy.
** If this episode was encouraging to you, I’d like to ask you to please consider rating the Fighting for Joy podcast, and even leaving a review. Once you find my show, scroll down to where it says “tap to rate” or “write a review”. Tapping to rate literally takes a second or two, and writing a review can be quick as well. Just sharing that you enjoy listening, or that it’s an encouragement to you is enough. The longer I do this the more I understand how helpful those ratings and reviews really are, so thanks for considering this. It means a lot!
