My Story
Why I wrote these workbooks
In February 2023, I lost my significant other unexpectedly, and my life shifted in ways I never could have anticipated. Grief didn't arrive with clear edges or instructions. It seeped into everything: the way I moved through my days, the questions I asked myself, the truths I could no longer avoid.
There wasn't one moment where everything suddenly became clear. Awareness came gradually, through small choices and practices that helped me feel a little more grounded, connected, and alive again. I went to yoga. I joined a grief support group. I found people who let me grieve out loud instead of hiding it. Little by little, those things helped me survive. And, over time, they helped me begin rebuilding.
Living and grieving with intention has allowed me to keep going with purpose while still carrying what I've lost. It hasn't fixed anything, and it isn't a checklist. It's a way of choosing, on the hard days and the ordinary ones, to stay in the life I'm actually living instead of the one on autopilot.
The InTENtion Series was born from that process, for whoever needs it next.
