Are you facing your first New Year as a widow and feeling dread instead of hope?

While everyone else is posting “New year, new me,” you might be thinking, “I didn’t even want this year. I just wanted my person back.”

In this episode, Emily shares 5 “permission slips” for your heart so you can walk into a new year without your person with more gentleness, honesty, and faith. No pretending you’re okay. No pressure to set big goals. Just real talk, real grief, and real hope in Jesus.

You’ll hear:

To help you put this into practice, I created a free New Year Permission Slip Worksheet just for widows.
