While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss

145 | "Am I Gonna Make It?" with Shirley Thiessen


Listen Later

Author, speaker, and grief coach Shirley Thiessen joins me on the podcast again today.   If you missed last week’s episode, you’ll want to click HERE to hear the story of her 23-year-old son Jordan, who was killed in a workplace accident in 2012.  Today we extend our conversation to talk about how, after the loss of a child, we can find ourselves completely frozen in grief and unable to move forward.  We also discuss how God can use us to become Hope Heroes to others who are grieving and how that can help bring about healing in our own lives.  Finally, we’ll address the question many grieving parents find themselves asking … “Am I Gonna Make it?”
