Can we truly recover after devastating loss? Guest Julie New says, "YES!" 

Julie New, grief and sudden loss recovery coach, joins us today on the podcast.

This Episode’s Highlights:

🌷 Julie’s Story – From the pain of grief of losing both her daughters’ father and subsequently her husband, Julie shares how her own path fuels her compassion for others.

🌱 “Watering You” – Julie’s signature message: self-care isn’t just a buzzword, it’s vital. Her analogy of keeping your “watering can filled up” is both practical and moving—reminders we all need.

🌺 Planet Grief – We discuss the surreal feeling of being on “another planet” after loss and the importance of recognizing and honoring that space before slowly returning to yourself and the world.

🍰 Bereavement Café – Discover how Julie’s nurturing spirit led her to create a safe, welcoming space for those grieving—a place with cake, candles, real conversations, and community.

📚 Books for the Grieving Heart – Julie is the author of “Who Are The Flowers in Your Garden?” and “The Grief Garden Path,” both gentle guides for reflection and growth after loss. Her message? Great love creates great grief—but it also plants seeds for future happiness.

💕 Support for Special Days – With Father’s Day approaching, Julie shares heartfelt advice for widows and grieving parents. Be gentle, anticipate triggers, create meaningful rituals, and above all, hold your children close.

A Few Golden Nuggets:

• “You are not alone. Even if you feel alone, the love for your person will never die.”
• “Keep watering you—emotionally, physically, mentally, spiritually. If you don’t, you’ll wilt. Keep topping up your watering can.”
