Onnie opens her heart to share her journey of grief following the devastating loss of her 20-year-old daughter, Kaylah in this deeply personal and vulnerable episode of the Moms Without Capes Podcast. She reflects on how this tragedy has reshaped her reality, relationships, and approach to life.

Onnie discusses the importance of doing the work of grief—seeking therapy, attending support groups, and practicing self-compassion—even when it feels impossibly hard. She also explores the lessons she’s learned about setting boundaries, detaching self-worth from external roles, and leaning on her faith and family for comfort.

Grief comes in waves, and Onnie candidly shares how she’s learning to sit with her emotions, honor Kaylah’s memory, and navigate this new chapter of life. Whether you’re grieving the loss of a loved one or mourning the life you once had, Onnie offers encouragement and asks the poignant question: What are you grieving?

Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about finding strength in vulnerability, the power of community, and the importance of asking yourself what you truly need.
