Mother | Write | Inspire

YOU are not alone

I'm here to help light up the darkness, inspire, and help other mums feel seen and less alone through my musings on life, motherhood, and mental health, intertwined with my faith and grief. This is a space for REAL motherhood - the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. Here, I promise to be open, vulnerable, and honest.

Here, you are seen, and you are heard.

Not The Same; Still The Same

Not The Same; Still The SameBy: Lynn Vincent Published on: 20/11/2025

There is no scale or measure that can ever quantify the depth of pain a mother feels when she loses her child, no matter how long she carried, knew, or held them. And yet the sad truth is that in this world, and even within the grief community, there is often an unspoken comparison when it comes to mothers: Is it harder to lose a baby in pregnancy or after birth? Does the time we have together determine the depth of the loss and therefore the amount of pain we feel?

Our Grief Is Not The Same

Our Grief Is Not The SameBy: Lynn Vincent Published on: 23/10/2025

Grief is a lonely journey. Unless someone has experienced grief before, it can be quite hard to fathom just how much it can affect a person. However, no two experiences of grief are ever the same.

Children’s Books About Grief

Children’s Books About GriefBy: Lynn Vincent Published on: 19/09/2025

Last month, I shared a post with suggestions on how to support children through grief and loss. One of those suggestions was to be honest in age-appropriate ways, and we found a great way to do this was through books. There are so many options out there, so I've decided to share some of our favourite children’s books on grief and loss to hopefully cut the overwhelm and help you find a suitable one.

Children Grieve Too

Children Grieve TooBy: Lynn Vincent Published on: 15/08/2025

When we think about grief, we often picture adults. But grief is not reserved for just us grown-ups. Children grieve too. The tricky thing about grief in children is not only may it be delayed, it also may not look like adult grief.
