Welcome to my blog Cristiana Holland: Coping with a loss

Well, I decided to start journaling, just a few days after my mother passed September 3rd, 2022. I never knew this would be my life, never imagined life without her so early on. Realizing that I'll be turning 27 on the 29th of this month and she won't be the first call I get in the morning.

Anyways I should introduce myself so everyone can have an idea of who am I. My name is Cristiana Holland born on the 29th of September. I am a single mother of two currently and I enjoy cooking, working out, researching different topics, taking pictures, eating out, looking at tarot readings, traveling and hanging out with loved ones. I am a Libra sun, Sagittarius moon, and Cancer rising (for those into astrology like myself). The whole point of this blog is to journal about life without a mother and how to deal with grief, regret, and any other emotions young women or men might feel after losing a parent. I want to share my story as well as create a safe space for people to discuss how they feel without feeling alone or judged. I will also be sharing healthy coping methods, better food options, and different workout techniques in order to help on our healing journeys. I'm sure this will not be an easy process, which you'll soon find out if you keep reading my future posts, but I'm excited to put my focus into something positive that will not only help myself grieve but also help others who have lost a loved one.
