In the Northern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice (December 21st) is recognized in many Western Christian denominations as "The Longest Night". Typically, services are held to hold space for those who have lost a loved one and are experiencing grief. Today's episode is dedicated to how I've experienced various holidays as a bereaved mother over the last 4.5 years, what's changed, and alternatives to "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Birthday".
