Finding Joy After Grief 🌻
Sunday Times Best Selling Author
📖 How To Stop Breaking Your Own Heart
Founder: @thegoodquote 🇹🇹🇩🇲🇬🇧

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

My new book “You Deserve to Live Again” is available for pre-order. Out 3rd November 2026. Link in the bio.

What started as something I repeated to myself in the mirror on my hardest days, “you deserve to live again”, was how I gained the confidence to give myself permission to step back into life. After a series of losses over the past five years, it turned into an offering of everything I learned walking with grief.

This guide isn’t about how to ‘get over’ grief. It’s about returning to yourself after it changes you. It’s not designed to save you. But it will hold your hand, sit with you in the mess of it, and show you everything I learned the hard way, so you don’t have to.

They say grief is love with nowhere to go. But it’s also a paralysing collapse, a universal experience that somehow leaves you completely alone in it, stripped to the core, holding onto the last remaining fragments of your old life.

I waited months to finish this. I wanted to reach a place within myself where I could talk to you from the other side of grief.

If you’ve ever thought: “When they died, I died too. I don’t recognise myself any more. Everyone expects me to move on. I’m scared I’ll never feel like myself again. I miss them so much my body hurts. I don’t know how to carry this pain.”

Then this book was written for you. It’s what I desperately needed after I lost my mother and eventually started losing myself. Misunderstood, left in a world with no instruction manual, expected to carry on as normal. The shock of how debilitating life becomes after losing your person left me frozen. And I knew that once I learned to live alongside grief, I’d share every step I took to return home to myself.

Gentle Reminder: You deserve to look back at the early stages of grief and hug yourself for making it through the survival days. You deserve to thrive knowing the energy of your person is right there clapping for you. You deserve to experience joy. You deserve to live again.

I hope this book provides you with a deeper perspective and serves you well on your journey.

I smile; because I still have the ability to do so. Recently, life has transformed itself into a traumatic accumulation of losses and a magnitude of change. Since October 2020; 15 members of my soul community, including both of my parents, Wale’s Father and 3 Friends all transitioned into the spiritual realm, leaving me behind to adult without the adults who raised me. The hardest and most significant departure was my darling Mother, who passed away in March 2021 from Cancer.

I smile; because I still have the ability to do so, but mostly because I made it. They thought I would die without my Mother but instead I developed more love and resilience. I endured a lot of abuse in my childhood from family, which trickled its way into adulthood, resulting in my behaviours and habits being deep-rooted in unhealthy coping mechanisms and trauma. I’m no longer honouring their secrets or carrying their shame.
—
I was blessed and fortunate enough to have unconditional love for 31 years of my life from my Mother, but ever since she transitioned into the spiritual realm, I was abruptly made aware of how cold this world truly is. Which made the reasons behind why I started this platform more meaningful and intentional. I wanted to create a space online for everyone to experience the beauty of being poured into — with words of encouragement and love; an essence similar to my upbringing. I wanted to create a safe space. Community. Now that’s accomplished, I’m moving towards a higher vision, where I’ll be using my platforms to find healing resources for those with similar experiences, documenting my journey as I return home to myself and relaunching our Publishing House “The Good Publishing” connecting with writers who share a similar message.

This is how you actively break generational curses.

I Give Thanks to absolutely everyone who nurtured me during this time. Thank you for your patience. INFINITE INFINITE INFINITE LOVE. Thank You. All praise to the Most High. ❤️

Gentle reminder to be patient with those who are grieving, as they learn how to live side by side with grief 🌻

And when I say “grief is here to stay”, I mean that grief is not something you simply ‘get over’ or leave behind.. it becomes a part of you that you learn to carry. The goal is not to escape grief, but to find a way to step back into your life and participate in it fully, even while carrying that grief with you.

Grief doesn’t heal overnight. It takes many moons to find your way back home to yourself, but slowly, piece by piece, things begin to come together again.

Keep showing up. Aim for 1% better each day. Let grief be part of your story, not your whole identity. You were someone before the collapse, and you’ll rebuild yourself into someone new after it.

After the storm, everything you rebuild is done with intention, including your community. 🌻 by @earthtoroxanne

How to move on after losing your mother? Find something new to pour your love into.
.
That was the advice I received from my godmother. At the time, it felt impossible. But over the past 4years, I’ve been trying my best to find things to love, until I realised the first thing I needed to focus on was myself.
.
Grief absolutely crippled me but being faced with the reality of how ugly family can be, really highlighted how much my mother protected me.
.
I realised that I spent a whole lifetime breaking my own heart due to the ricochet of the treatment I received growing up which resulted in me treating myself the same way. I wanted to stop that pattern. I wanted to break those chains. So I decided to do the one thing they always told me not to do: share my story.
.
I decided to put everything into a book and build a community of people who went through the same thing, to speak to them and let them know that even though people around you may have spent years trying to break your heart, and even though you may have normalised that behaviour and ended up breaking your own heart, you can still return home to yourself.
.
Because there is a beautiful life out there, a life that needs to be lived, that you have a right to pursue. And the quicker you fix your broken heart, the quicker you get to enjoy this human experience.
.
I learned a lot about forgiveness. I learned how to filter my community. I learned how to walk away from people I never thought I would have to walk away from and still have peace in my heart. I learned how to handle my pain.
.
I learned how to love myself again and how much it takes. The routines, the new habits, the lifestyle changes, everything you have to rebuild when you lose your rock.
.
So, if anyone reading this has lost a parent, pour your love into something else. The love your parent(s) left behind for you has manifested into a seed. You need to bury it, take care of it, and allow that seed to grow. That’s how you keep them alive.
.
My mother always used to say, “People only die when you stop talking about them” and 65k have read her name.
.
Thank you to everyone who brought a copy of my book and made this possible. 🌻 by @earthtoroxanne

Absolutely nothing prepares you for losing a parent. It’s possibly the most important shift and transition you’ll ever experience in this life.

The hardest moments are the days that follow, when the world you’ve spent your whole life building suddenly shatters. Everything disappears, and you realise that the only things left to hold onto are the sentimentals.

Small things, like a piece of their clothing, or their favourite mug in the kitchen. Just their scent alone has the power to resurface so many feelings!

If you’re currently preparing to lose a parent, my advice is this: record everything. Capture the moments. Record their laugh, their stories, their voice. Ask them to create messages for your future milestones. Make sure that even if they’re no longer physically present, they’ve left behind something that gives you something to look forward to. One day, those small videos will mean everything.

This is for anyone who is grieving, or watching someone they love slip away.

💔 Preserve the love. It’s what keeps you going.
