Mia provides insights on how to navigate grief, including being honest about feelings, seeking support, and allowing oneself to rest. In this part of the conversation, Mia Randall discusses her personal experiences with grief and shares five strategies for dealing with grief and providing support for others who may be grieving. Takeaways Grief can be caused by various forms of loss, such as death, divorce, or the end of a relationship or job. Women and men grieve differently, with women often seeking support, telling their stories, and creating memorials. Grief is unexpected and can disrupt sleep patterns and daily functioning. Endings are often viewed as failures, but they can also be opportunities for growth and new beginnings. Being honest about feelings and seeking support are important in navigating grief.

Join Mia as she creates a safe space for women who want to grow, nurture, care, and love on one another as we work to find what binds us together versus what tears us apart. In this episode of Come Sis with Me, we talk about Obedience and how we can shift the paradigm in which we view it. Obedience is a lot, it’s an honor that takes commitment, but its also an opportunity to come to the end of yourself and rely on God for everything else, it’s a transformation. That’s the hardest part for some of us who like to hear “job well done” on this side of eternity. But maybe reminding yourself that even the act of obedience is your reward that can help soothe those places of trouble that you are waiting on to be answered.

Join Mia as she creates a safe space for women who want to grow, nurture, care, and love on one another as we work to find what binds us together versus what tears us apart. In this episode of Come Sis with Me, we talk about having a compassionate heart and spirit that will deposit that into your encounters with the women you meet. Compassion is an essential element in relationships, especially in Sisterhood and differs from that of Empathy. Compassion and empathy both refer to a caring response to someone else’s distress. While empathy refers to an active sharing in the emotional experience of the other person, compassion adds to that emotional experience a desire to alleviate the person’s distress (Websters Dictionary, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/compassion). "Compassion runs deep and penetrates; it goes beyond the often-fleeting circumstance of the moment"-Mia "Compassion extended, yields a deeper return"- Mia Leave me a voicemail, DM me on IG @comesiswithme, or email me at heysis@comesiswithme.com Message from Mia: If you don't already know, You've Got This, Sis! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/comesiswithme/message
