Widow 180 The Podcast with Jen Zwinck

37. Author, Widow, And Podcaster Jenny Lisk Shares Her Story On Finding Her Voice


Listen Later

Jenny Lisk's entire world shut down and turned upside down with her husband, Dennis's sudden diagnosis of glioblastoma.  Within a few short months, Jenny became full time caregiver for Dennis, who lost his battle with brain cancer in January 2016. 

Jenny documented the year from diagnosis until Dennis's death through Caring Bridge, an online blog/journal for families going through illness. 

Jenny realized she needed extra help and support when it came to her 2 young children and their grief. 

She started to compile a list of resources and felt a calling to share this information with other widows.

She started her podcast, The Widowed Parent Podcast, where each week she interviews top grief experts, authors, psychologists,  and speakers who share their advice.

Jenny recently published her first book called Future Widow: Losing My Husband, Saving My Family, and Finding My Voice.
