166. Finding YOUR people after loss

I often encourage widowed people to find other widowed people because there is deep comfort in being around people who truly understand life after loss. But sometimes you finally find a grief group or widowed community… and realize they’re not your people. Today, let’s talk about why that happens, and why it’s okay to keep looking for the connections that truly fit you.

164. The Quiet Weight of Memorial Day

On Memorial Day in the US, we honor military personnel who died in service. For most Americans, it’s a long weekend, the unofficial start of summer, and often includes a cookout. For widowed people—it can feel unexpectedly heavy, bringing grief, memories, and the sharp awareness of who is missing. In this episode, we’ll talk about how to care for yourself, honor what matters, and navigate the day with more intention and less pressure.

163. Why the “Year of Firsts” Is a Myth

The “year of firsts” is one of the most common and misleading myths about grief. In this episode, I explain why grief does not fit neatly into the first 365 days, introduce the concept of secondary losses, and offer a more truthful, compassionate way to understand life after the loss of a spouse.
