There’s a unique kind of grief that comes with having to change a room in your home…
A room that once belonged to someone you love deeply.
It’s an experience that’s tender, confusing, and layered — not because we’re “moving on,” but because life keeps moving even when our hearts feel paused. Sometimes we’re faced with decisions we never imagined having to make, and they bring up feelings of powerlessness we don’t always know how to name.
What I’ve learned is this:
- You can repurpose a space and still hold someone in your heart.
- You can make practical changes at home while still carrying hope, love, and openness.
- You can honor what was and create space for what’s becoming.
This isn’t about replacing anyone.
Some rooms hold memories so deep that even when the paint changes, the love doesn’t.
If you’re going through your own version of this — shifting a space, releasing something that meant everything, or navigating a relationship that’s in a quiet season — please know this:
Your grief is valid. Your powerlessness is real. But you are not alone, and you are not broken.
Sometimes healing asks us to sit with the ache, to breathe through the uncertainty, and to trust that transformation can happen even in the spaces we didn’t choose.
- If you’re navigating grief, change, or letting go… I see you.
- If you feel like the ground has moved beneath you… you’re not alone.
- If you’re ready to find clarity, healing, or your next step — I’m here.
