For the Love of Mr. Jones Podcast

Celebrating Through the Shifts

In this episode of For the Love of Mr. Jones, I take a moment to slow down and reflect on life, grief, and the quiet shifts that happen when you're stepping into a new season.
Yesterday was my daughter’s third birthday, and while it was a beautiful day filled with joy, it was also emotional for me. Since my husband passed away on December 9, 2024, milestones like birthdays feel different. They remind me of love, loss, and the strength it takes to keep moving forward.
In this episode, I talk about what it means to hold joy and grief at the same time, how life can change in ways we don’t always expect, and how I’m learning to trust the process of stepping into new chapters.
I also share a personal journal prompt that has helped me reflect on the changes happening in my life and how I’m choosing to embrace growth instead of resisting it.
This conversation is honest, reflective, and a reminder that even through life’s hardest moments, love, faith, and purpose can still guide us forward.
If you’ve ever experienced loss, life transitions, or moments where you had to find strength you didn’t know you had, this episode is for you.

Honoring How Far I’ve Come

In this episode of For the Love of Mr. Jones, I’m taking a pause from guests and turning inward.
Season 2 started with powerful conversations, vulnerability, and shared healing. But today, I felt led to reflect. To sit still. To look back at the first two episodes and really ask myself: What did those conversations reveal about me? About love? About grief? About growth?
This episode is personal.
I’m talking about identity shifts after loss. I’m talking about the quiet strength I didn’t even realize I had. I’m talking about grieving while still showing up as a mother, as a woman, as someone rebuilding her life in real time.
If you’ve ever wondered who you are after life changes you… this conversation is for you.
I also share a journal prompt to help you recognize the strength you’ve been carrying ,even if no one else sees it.
This is a reflection.
This is a reset.
This is me honoring how far I’ve come.
And maybe… it’ll help you see how far you’ve come too

Grieving in Layers: Wrongful Conviction, Lost Freedom & A Friendship Forged in Prison

In this powerful episode of For the Love of Mr. Jones, I sit down with Zayvion, a man wrongfully convicted of second-degree murder in the death of his child and later exonerated through the Innocence Project.
We explore the layers of grief he carried losing his child, losing his freedom, and losing his identity and how he navigated life behind bars. We also dive into the unexpected friendship he formed with my husband while in prison, a bond built on loyalty, faith, and resilience.
This conversation challenges our assumptions about justice, identity, and redemption. It’s a raw, honest, and deeply human story about surviving unimaginable loss and finding hope in the most unlikely places.

Still Here: A Love Letter Before Season Two

In this holder episode of For the Love of Mr. Jones, I return, not to rush forward, but to honor the pause. I reflect on silence, survival, and the becoming that happens when grief reshapes your voice and love learns how to evolve.
This episode gently introduces Season Two, officially launching on Valentine’s Day…. a deliberate choice rooted in reclaiming love after loss. Because love doesn’t end with death, and grief doesn’t get the final word.
Season Two will feature guests and explore different types of grief from loss and divorce to identity shifts, motherhood, waiting seasons, and the grief we don’t always have language for.
This episode is for anyone who has loved deeply, lost something meaningful, and is still learning how to live without betraying their heart.
Some love stories don’t end.
They deepen.

What I’ve Learned Since Becoming a Widow

In this episode, I share what grief has taught me since becoming a widow, not the polished lessons, but the quiet truths that only show up after the noise fades.
I talk about the silence that comes when everyone goes back to their lives, the way love changes shape after loss, and how strength doesn’t always look like being okay. I reflect on faith, anger, patience, and the slow process of becoming someone new when the life you planned is gone.
This episode lives in the waiting space between seasons, between who I was and who I’m becoming. If you’re grieving, missing someone, or learning how to carry love and loss at the same time, this is for you.
Season one has ended, but the story continues. Thank you for sitting with me while I wait for what’s next.

When Nothing Ended, But Everything Changed

This episode is about a kind of grief we don’t talk about enough, the kind where nobody died, nothing officially ended, but the relationship, the dynamic, the feeling just isn’t the same anymore.
I’m talking about friendships that faded, marriages that shifted, family roles that changed, and the quiet grief that comes with all of that. The kind of grief that makes you feel confused, tired, guilty, or like you should “just be grateful,” even though something inside you hurts.
In this episode, I share what ambiguous grief is, how it lives in the body, how it affects our relationships and our sense of self, and why it’s okay to grieve what still exists. This is a gentle, honest conversation about naming what we’ve been carrying and giving ourselves permission to stop pretending we’re fine.
If you’ve ever missed someone who’s still here,this episode is for you.
