About this video
Shelton addresses viewers grieving the loss of their mothers, sharing his own experience of losing his mom. He argues that grief never fully goes away but teaches you to carry it, offering strategies he says helped him cope: allowing yourself to feel emotions, talking about the pain, honoring your mother’s memory, and taking grief one day at a time. Shelton emphasizes that while life continues after loss, mothers would want their children to keep living with purpose rather than giving up.
