When Grief Comes With Guilt: Letting God Into the "What Ifs"
Episode 16
Friday, 8 May, 2026

Guilt is one of the heaviest emotions grief can bring. The replaying. The second-guessing. The "I should have…" thoughts that keep circling long after someone we love is gone. In this episode, we talk honestly about grief guilt and shame — the regrets, unanswered questions, missed moments, and impossible standards we place on ourselves after loss. We also explore how faith changes the way we carry those burdens. God never asked us to be perfect. He asks us to bring Him the truth of our hearts. If you've been trapped in guilt during grief, this episode will help you begin separating love from blame, regret from responsibility, and shame from truth. Book a free consult call here.
