As the year comes to a close, the pressure to “finish strong” can feel overwhelming—especially if this year included loss, grief, or unexpected challenges. In this episode of Grief, I Didn’t Sign Up for This, Shaleka Smith reframes what it truly means to end the year strong.

This conversation invites you to slow down, reflect honestly, and release what no longer serves you. Together, we explore how strength doesn’t always look like productivity or achievement, but often shows up as resilience, self-compassion, and alignment with God’s grace. Through reflection, scripture, and gentle encouragement, this episode creates space to honor your journey, acknowledge your growth, and step into the new year without carrying unnecessary weight.

Whether you’re grieving, healing, or simply exhausted from the year, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to rush into what’s next—God meets you right where you are.

Take a deep breath, press play, and let this be your permission to close the year with peace.
