About this week’s episode and guest

Today, I have the honor of introducing someone very special—Steve, a 65-year-old man living in the UK. He has been married to Lindsay for 40 years and has three grown-up children and five grandchildren. His life changed significantly when Lindsay died suddenly nearly two years ago. 

Steve was a client of mine for several years following the heartbreaking, sudden and unexpected loss of his Lindsay. Steve’s journey through grief is exemplary because he diligently put himself out to understand grief, to learn to live with it and integrate the loss of his companion of a lifetime into a meaningful life. I invited him to share his story because it offers much insight.

When we began working together, Steve was recently widowed. From the beginning, he wanted to grow not because of his loss but despite it and embrace life yet again. Over the time we worked together, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing his incredible transformation—how he embraced his own grief and walked alongside the grief of his three adult children. We worked through the difficult emotions, and he ultimately rebuilt his life in a way that honors his late wife’s memory while also opening himself up to new love.
