Trying to get the motivation back...

My husband and I joined a while back. We were so excited to get started and things were lining up for us to finally make some moves and get our first flip...then our teenage daughter attempted to commit suicide. It was very impulsive and unexpected. She went inpatient and I shut down. Things just kinda fell apart after that. Now, she's been back home for a few months and getting the help she needs, but I'm still feeling stuck. Mentally I'm good. I have my people I talk to, but I just can't seem to get the motivation back to get started again. We have an amazing realtor who continues to send us properties, but I don't "feel" like trying to find the money again or looking at multiple properties etc.

We really want this for our family and I know we can do it, but there's gotta be a way to get over this hump. How do you find the motivation to push forward even when things go crazy?
