Welcome to Healed House

Grief, Healing, Support, Women, Community, Tools,

Hello Hello, welcome to Healed House, a community of women who are healing from loss whether that is from death, divorce, job, health etc. I am Ta'Mara, a wife, a mother of 4, an entrepreneur and the founder of Healed House. In 2021 I suffered the only loss I couldn't make sense of. The loss of an unborn child. I was not expecting or planning to get pregnant. I was already overwhelmed with 4 kids I had and I wasn't ready for a 5th kid. This unborn child represented a dream and a promise, of having a daughter and that my body was finally healed. Though I have 2 boys of my own and 2 bonus children (a boy and a girl) with my husband, I still wanted my own daughter. In my lifetime I have experienced a lot of loss.

At age 5 I lost my first best friend, my Great, Great, Great Aunt Louise died of cancer, then my only biological brother was killed right before my 11th birthday, my grandfather when I was 17 and my grandmother when I was 19, then my mother at 25. I have lost my home, and I've suffered job loss too Hardly any time to grieve in between because being young woman, a young black woman, its hard to stop and allow yourself to feel what you feel. During these times I had lost hope, become angry, fought depression and illnesses and somehow managed to cover it all up by pretending I was ok and I am not a great actress. But I fooled a lot of people and even myself sometimes.

But through prayer, therapy and good talks with my close friends, I learned I am resilient. Even without my pillars physically with me, I was able to stand strong, experience love, enjoy life, and God kept me sane every step of the way. What the church folk say " I shoulda lost my mind, I shoulda been dead and buried in my grave, BUT God Kept ME!!"

Stages of Grief

There are many stages of Grief from shock and denial to rebuilding & acceptance, and all the symptoms, cycles and triggers in between, It is a roller coaster. Because of the loss of my baby, I was able to get to a place of acceptance and purpose. I went through my grief with the help of my family, friends and my therapist. I can now show you how to get through your grief process, go through the cycles and begin to accept and rebuild. It will not be easy but it will give you peace.

Grab a seat, grab a glass of wine, and join me as we go through the process.

You can expect to hear about my different experiences, triggers, and favorite memories. I will even talk about how I processed anger and how grief has effected my marriage. My goal by sharing my experiences and giving you the tools I used will hopefully help you feel supported, loved, and less alone. I will help you identify your triggers, express your feelings and encourage you.
