Through a trip to Texas, long country drives, deep conversations, and moments of joy and reflection, this story explores how healing is often found in connection, presence, and the people who make us feel like we belong even when life feels heavy.

     Grief Packs A Bag Too

    This week, my children and I took an unexpected trip from California to Texas. We didn't move, we simply needed a change of scenery, a chance to breathe, and a break from the weight of everyday life. What I discovered is that grief doesn't stay home when we travel. It comes along for the journey. But so does love. In this episode, I share our trip to Texas, the warmth of family, a powerful conversation with a grieving father, and what I've learned about the belongings we hold onto after losing someone we love. email: msjonespodcast@gmail.com website: www.msjonespodcast.com

    Single Parenting Thru Grief

    In this week's episode of For the Love of Mr. Jones, I share a heartfelt conversation about what it really means to heal after loss. I talk about the guilt that can come with smiling again, laughing again, and finding joy after grief. I also dive into grief education, discussing common misconceptions about grief and why healing doesn't mean we've forgotten the people we love. I open up about my journey as a widow and single parent, sharing the emotional weight of carrying an entire household while navigating my own healing. Through personal stories, faith, and reflection, I explore how grief and joy can coexist, what my children have taught me about resilience, and how trusting God has helped me continue moving forward even when life doesn't make sense. This episode includes a journal prompt for self-reflection, practical grief insights, encouragement for single parents, and a reminder that healing is not a betrayal of love, it's evidence that love continues. website www.msjonespodcast.com email msjonespodcast@gmail.com

    When Peace Is Not Free

    In this episode, I share honestly about what this season of grief has been teaching me. I reflect on believing I would feel “okay” by the one-year mark, only to realize 18 months later that grief doesn’t work on a timeline. I talk about the waves of healing, the moments I’ve had to release heavy things I didn’t want to let go of, and how peace sometimes comes with a cost. This is a raw, real conversation about healing, surrender, and finding meaning in the middle of grief. And I’ll leave you with this, now that’s some good grief.

    Grief, Jealousy, and Everything I Pretend I'm Fine About

    In this episode, I open up about the parts of grief I don’t always say out loud the jealousy I feel sometimes, the confusion I still sit with, the impulsive decisions I made while trying to survive, and the quiet moments where everything hits me all at once. I also share something my therapist pointed out to me that I use laughter as a defense mechanism and how that truth made me start paying closer attention to myself in ways I can’t ignore anymore. From coming home to an empty house, to realizing how deeply I still feel the absence of my husband in everyday life, to unexpectedly feeling joy and sadness at the same time while celebrating my daughter’s last day of school… this episode is about what it actually looks like to live inside grief while still showing up for life. I talk about what it means to slowly feel like myself again, without pretending I’m the same person I was before loss. This isn’t about moving on. It’s about learning how to live in the in-between where love, grief, joy, and pain all exist at the same time. And somehow still choosing to keep going. website: www.msjonespodcast.com email: msjonespodcast@gmail.com

    Hello From the Other Side of Grief

    This week on For the Love of Mr. Jones, I’m talking about what happened when I finally gave myself permission to rest. After spending the weekend away from my kids, hiking with my cousin, eating by the lake, and slowing down mentally, I realized how long I’ve truly been operating in survival mode. When I picked my babies back up, I felt more patient, more present, and honestly… more like myself again. But with that rest also came grief. I opened up about feeling cheated after losing Eric so soon, how Hello by Adele hits completely different now that I’m a widow, and how grief changes the way you hear music, experience life, and carry responsibility. I also talk about reconnecting with God through Bible study, the importance of community while grieving, and learning that rest is not laziness, it’s necessary. This episode is for anyone carrying grief silently while still trying to show up for everybody else. contact: msjonespodcast@gmail.com   website: www.msjonespodcast.com
