Can you truly heal from the trauma of losing a child? June Kraholik Collins, a dedicated businesswoman and mother, joins us on the Lift One Self podcast to share her deeply emotional journey of grief and healing. Starting with a calming guided meditation, June opens up about the importance of self-care and managing anxiety amid her bustling life. She recounts the heart-wrenching loss of her angel baby, Kaleb, and the indescribable impact his short life had on everyone around him.
Facing one of the most intense grieving processes, June discusses the personal challenges she encountered, including the traumatic experience of performing CPR on her own child and balancing the demanding nature of her law enforcement career. We delve into her struggles with anxiety and depression, particularly during a subsequent pregnancy filled with fear and heightened protective instincts. June emphasizes the necessity of identifying personal triggers and finding unique ways to cope, as traditional therapy isn't always effective for everyone.
In this candid conversation, June shares her insights on expressing difficult emotions like anger and rage in healthy ways, and the continuous journey toward healing and forgiveness. She talks about her support group on Facebook for grieving mothers and her heartfelt book, "Mama, You Don't Heal," offering solace and practical advice for those navigating life after loss. By sharing her personal experiences and resilience, June provides hope and actionable strategies for others dealing with similar pain, reminding us that healing is an ongoing journey rather than a final destination.
