My Journey with Grief & Loss | Chitchat with Kitcat

Hi friends! I'm so glad to have you back with me on my second episode of Chitchat with Kitcat. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to put together this second episode, the lurgy got me and to be honest, it took me a while to piece together how I was going to put this episode together for you.

Thanks also to a whole bunch of you who follow and know me - I got lots of feedback from my first episode saying that you would like me to go a little deeper into who I am and what goes on behind the fun videos I create in my spare time. The truth is, I struggle a lot as I know many do when it comes to my mental health and whilst we all have mental health, I believe my struggles truly started when I lost my courageous Mum to Bowel Cancer when I was 19. She was my world, my best friend and my left arm, to live a life without her fills me with guilt, uncertainty and often leaves me in a place of subconsciously living in survival mode. Throughout this episode, I talk about how I literally have to schedule time throughout my day to be positive and to remind myself of all the good I have in my life. It can be easier said than done though which I think is really important to share.

I think it's obvious to most that I use humour to cover up a lot of dark feelings and emotions, although it is important for me to mention that that isn't solely to cover up sad times, I definitely got my humour and lightheartedness from my Mumma which I often bring to a lot of areas throughout my life with ease. This episode was so therapeutic for me to make and I hope you can resonate with it if you too have lost someone important in your life or are going through some kind of loss right now.

Love and light, I am here if you want to talk. Remember, you are never alone.
