Widow’s Peak Podcast

Chuck and Jme return to the mic after a short hiatus to focus on family and healing. They share about what they've been up to, post one year firsts, and recommendations for navigating the maintenance phases of grief.

Chuck passes the one year mark since losing Meka and reflects on what that means. He and Jme talk about letting go of things they hold on to for comfort and in tribute to their late spouse, but also agree it is painful to continue to do so. Letting go doesn't mean forgetting. Allowing other things like living in the present to water their grief is something they're both challenging themselves to do.

Chuck + Jme sit down with Dr. J, owner and practitioner of Deeply Seen Physiological and Consulting Services. They discuss Jaimie's early engagement with Dr. J while experiencing anticipatory grief a year prior to George's passing, family therapy, judgement, and overcoming trauma while parenting.  Website:  https://www.deeplyseenpsych.com/ [https://www.deeplyseenpsych.com/]

Chuck + Jme discuss experiencing the unobvious firsts like the children's birthdays, first summer, first back to school and all of the other firsts most folks don't assume hurt just as bad as the obvious ones! Then they talk about seasons and a sweet surprise Chuck finds left behind by his dear wife Tameka.

Chuck + Jme talk about getting sick for the first time after losing their spouses. They discuss ways they are over compensating to fill in the gaps for their spouse.
