Today I am going to share with you what we got wrong about loss. I used to believe that loss was when you lost someone to death, and after losing my daughter, I realized that it's so much more. We have all endured loss. Loss is the loss of your health, of your freedom, of your finances, of a loved one because of death or because of separation, divorce. Loss is a universal language. You've experienced loss and because you have felt that loss, you have the ability to empathize with people that are going through anything that you may not have gone through, but you may understand in your heart. So please, whenever you have the opportunity to help someone that's enduring the loss of a loved one or a divorce, even if you haven't gone through that experience, know that you understand that pain and that you know what it feels because you too have lost at some point your life as you knew it. My message is a message of hope. So regardless of the loss or pain or adversity that you're experiencing, know that my desire is to bring hope to your life and help you overcome it.
