Resources of Hope for Moms Grieving Pregnancy or Infant Loss | The Morning Library

I am Ashlee Proffitt, founder of The Morning and fellow mom to a baby in heaven. One of the most difficult aspects of my grief journey was learning what it looked like to simply live after my son died – I had no idea how to navigate even the simplest of things that had been so mundane or easy before. And in the 14 years since my infant son died I have been learning what it looks like to navigate all the different aspects of life after loss, the different challenges and difficulties that a grieving mom faces.

I founded The Morning to be a space where we could provide hope and community … where we could remind women they are not alone in this journey of navigating life after loss.

I know first hand how helpful it is to know someone who understands, who has been there. 

I know how helpful it is to have someone who truly understands say “I’ve been there, let me show you the way.” 

And that is why we created The Morning Library – to share big sister wisdom with you of what we’ve learned from our many years of navigating life after loss. We have been learning and we can’t wait to impart that wisdom to you. Giving you practical, tangible tools for navigating grief and all the nuances of life after baby loss.

And in case you’re wondering what exactly we’re covering, I wanted to introduce some of our brand new Workshops you can find in The Morning Library (and we’ve got even more coming soon!). I think you’re going to love them.

How to Navigate Milestones: Grief Workshop

HONEST, ENCOURAGING AND PRACTICAL WISDOM AS YOU FACE BIRTHDAYS, DUE DATES, ANNIVERSARIES OF DEATH, DIAGNOSIS DAY OR ANY DAY THAT IS MEANINGFUL TO YOU.

The most asked question from grieving moms is: How do I celebrate my baby’s birthday (or due date, anniversary of death, etc.)?

As grieving moms, we anticipate those days for weeks, months sometimes, before they come, and we often ask questions about and wonder how to practically honor our baby.

We also need the encouragement that you can only receive from moms who have gone before us as we wrestle with all the feelings we have on those milestone days.

The Milestone Workshop takes what you’d receive if you could sit down to coffee with that friend who has faced these days already and condensed the conversation into a 2-part, powerful but easy to listen to audio recording you can take with you on a walk, in the car, or even when you’re up late wondering how you’ll face that day.

You can even take notes, reflect, and write down your next action step in the downloadable Grief Workbook Pages.

Covering everything from what to expect, common challenges, and truths that will encourage you to practical ideas and how to make a plan, this Milestones Workshop is everything I’ve learned over the years as I’ve navigated my own bittersweet milestones.
