Holding On While Letting Go

Holding On While Letting Go

Why does loss feel so disorienting when life keeps moving forward?


How do you help your child process death when your own heart is breaking?


And what if grief and joy aren’t opposites—but partners in the same experience?


In this episode of The Courage To Be™, Tania Vasallo reflects on a tender season filled with both heartbreak and celebration. She shares the emotional story of saying goodbye to her 17-year-old dog just days before her birthday, honoring her daughter’s wish to delay the loss until after her own birthday, and what that taught her about compassion and timing. Tania also speaks about the sudden illness of a dear family friend and the passing of others close to us—all while six babies are being born into their extended family.


This episode is a raw and honest look at how life, death, parenting, and presence all collide. It’s for anyone navigating change, grief, or simply trying to hold it all together.
