My own husband died suddenly of a massive brain aneurysm with instant and irreversible damage.
I found myself on an uncertain and painful path with my then 8 and 11-year-old daughters.
That was 2017.
I have always said that Eric dying was terrible. That telling my girls was a nightmare. But the hardest thing I've ever done is to learn how to live again, but in his absence.
People tell you all sorts of crazy shit when your person dies - I remember someone telling me that I was always going to grieve Eric. And I thought to myself: The fuck I will.
And that sent me on a journey to try to feel and be and do better.
I needed to heal.
Honestly, everything that I did helped... for a little while. But at the end of the day Eric was still dead. Though we had a great marriage, of course there were regrets that I thought I'd have to carry to my grave - I would have done so many things differently had I known what I know now...
But it was THIS work that helped me work through my deepest heartbreak and regrets surrounding my husband's death.
Eric being a high-school football coach, I was looking for a "playbook" and this was exactly what I needed.
This personal tranformational work is what guided me into using The Grief Recovery Method® as the foundational work that I do as a Life Coach for Widows.
I work with all sorts of grievers, not just widows.
I help grievers process their unresolved shit that has you stuck from moving forward in life.
I help you make the shift in your heart...
I was worried that healing would mean that I was "moving on" without my dead husband - like I was throwing him to the dust.
It's a valid concern of a widow - but it's not true.
I don't consider myself actively grieving him any more.
But there's not a day where I don't think of him, miss him, and love him.
I love and miss our old life.
But I also love this new one I've created in this new chapter.
It can be both.
