140: How to Mentally Prepare for the Holiday Season Without a Loved One with Nancy Hicks
How can we mentally prepare for the holiday season without a loved one and manage grief at the holidays? Managing loss at Christmas and Thanksgiving can be extremely difficult since these seasons are traditionally a time of family celebration and fun.
In today’s podcast episode we will be speaking about grief as related to the loss of a loved one, but grief can show up in many ways such as grieving marriage problems or a divorce; being without a loved one due to military deployment; or moving to a new town away from family and friends.
Our guest today is Nancy Hicks, and Nancy lost her 28-year-old son to colon cancer a few months ago. This honest conversation about managing grief at the holidays is a powerful one and includes how we can manage our thoughts through grief, when to pause celebrating in order to honor the grief we’re experiencing, and how to honor the memory of the person we’ve lost.
P.S. If you are grieving, I would be honored to pray for you. Please reach out to me and send me a direct message on Instagram: @vibrantchristianliving

This episode mentions the I Am Loved Bible Study, and I highly recommend this as a next step.
This Bible study is a powerful four-week course packed with video teachings on the topic of love. We talk about the number one question that women ask about God’s love: “I know God says He loves me, but why don’t I feel it in my heart?” The Bible study is a wonderful tool to help you to explore what’s keeping you from believing in God’s love for you.
The “I Am Loved” Study uses the Spiritual Growth Rhythm™--my personal Bible study method to understand and apply a verse, recognize God at work, and release any fear or worry you may have.
Join me for this fresh encounter with God’s love… and let God’s love transform you from the inside out.
