  • Summary

  • Imagine the end of your life, looking back and reminiscing about all that has occurred, all that you’ve learned, what meaning it all had. Have you fulfilled all your dreams? Do you have regrets? What could you have done differently? What things were most important? What legacy do you hope you’ve left behind?


    Two things we as humans have in common are that we are born into this world, and we will pass on from this world. So often though, we get caught in the hustle and bustle of life and just survive every day. Did we take the time to really get to know and cherish our newborn child? Did we stop to play with or listen to our toddlers when they needed our attention? Did we show up at all their crossroads through their growing up years? How about the love and devotion for the grandkids? Did we give our spouse all the love and devotion they deserved as well as the support they needed through the hard times? Were we there as a listening ear for our friends? Did we take time to continually be in our parents’ lives and give them the care and support they needed as they aged and became less and less able to care for themselves? How did we handle the grief of the losses we’ve faced along the way? What is our view on life and death? Are we scared to die? Did we truly live?


    In this podcast we will have in depth conversations with the goal of guiding listeners through an embodied life evolution, by transforming grief into hope and peace, and preparing for the end of life with tranquility and acceptance. Through insightful discussions, my hope is that listeners will be empowered to embrace life’s journey with mindfulness and strength, illuminating the path of personal growth, spiritual reflection, and legacy creation, enabling each person to live fully, love deeply, and transition peacefully, leaving a legacy of grace and inspiration.




    As an aside: I want to make note that though this podcast was originally started in June 2024, it has led in a few different directions. First, it aired as The Embodied Grace podcast which was all interviews on grace and identity as a child of God. I then realized that it might be difficult to create a coaching program around this and as I began paying for my own coaching program on optimizing this podcast for business, I renamed it From Ashes to Grace with the subject matter being trauma. However, The drive for that died out quickly. I missed interviewing people and between losses I’ve had in my own life, losses my husband has had in his recent life, and with my getting back into hospice nursing, I have really found a passion for helping others through grief, through supporting and educating on end of life, and with those things making mortality feel very real, I also look forward to helping others build a life they love, that they can avoid the common regrets at the end of life.

    Since Christmas 2024, I’ve been speaking on grief and my initial coaching offering will be around grief with goals to expand to the other areas in the near future. This episode is airing on March 20, 2025 and the official rebranding will likely be in the next week or two


    This is the next chapter for this podcast, from here on known as Sacred Sunsets. I can’t wait for this new journey we’re embarking on together!

    Transition from "From Ashes To Grace" to "Sacred Sunsets" Podcast/Grief/End of Life/Living without Regrets
    Mar 21 2025

      Today's episode is going to serve as dual purposes. It will both be released as this week's episode, but it will also serve as the trailer for the transition of the podcast that I've been talking about for the past several weeks. Again, I want to thank you all for your patience and grace as I come into my own as an entrepreneur.

    Entrepreneur and finding what's truly in alignment with my life. My desire for the podcast from here on out is to have deep dive conversations into life, death, and everything in between. I hope that through this episode you can both see and feel my reason and purpose for the focus of this path. Let's get to it.

  • Stages of Grief: Stage 5 Acceptance/Anticipatory Grief/Disenfranchised Grief/Complicated Grief

    Stages of Grief: Stage 5 Acceptance/Anticipatory Grief/Disenfranchised Grief/Complicated Grief
    Mar 17 2025

    We’re going to discuss the final stage of grief which is acceptance. We will also cover anticipatory grief, disenfranchised grief, and complicated grief which can occur as well. If you haven’t already listened to the previous episodes, covering the other stages of grief, I encourage you to do so. Remember that those stages are: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. As covered previously, these stages are not linear and can happen at any point in the grieving process in any order and some people may not experience some of the stages at all. We all grieve in our own way and the best thing we can do when others are suffering the same loss we are is to recognize that any allow grace for each other. Otherwise, relationships can be torn apart, compounding that loss.

    For future episodes, I am working on lining up interviews with others who have experienced grief or who have helped others through grief. I also want to start opening up conversations about the end of life, as well as when someone has been enlightened with the preciousness of their mortality and have begun to live differently because of that realization. If you or others you know fit this, I would love to have you on the show!

  • Stages of Grief: Stage 4 Depression

    Stages of Grief: Stage 4 Depression
    Mar 7 2025

    Welcome back to this week’s episode of From Ashes to Grace. Life is busy so I’m STILLLLLL working on optimizing my podcast. As mentioned last week, it and my business will most likely be named Sacred Sunsets. I’m really excited for the direction this is going. I really want to thank those of you who have participated in my market research for this. I’ve had 14 responses so far which is amazing! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

    This week’s episode is the 4th of a 5 part series on the stages of Grief. So far we’ve covered the stages of Denial, Anger, and Bargaining. This week, we will be covering Depression, the 4th stage of grieving. Remember that though there are 5 stages, not everyone experiences every stage and no one person experiences each stage the same. Also, these stages are not linear. Your experience of grief can jump around and revisit stages at times. With the willingness to experience and work through your grief, the depth of the grief experienced will lessen in time. Not being willing to face the grief and work through it will lengthen and deepen your experience of grief.
