In this episode, we walk through the seasons of the year and how each one can feel different after the loss of a husband. From spring traditions to summer vacations, fall holidays, and winter celebrations, we talk about simple, intentional ways widows can create new memories—without erasing the old ones.

We share practical ideas for marking holidays in a way that feels safe and meaningful, how to give yourself permission to change traditions, and why it’s normal for your needs and preferences to shift from year to year. Some years you may want to be surrounded by people; other years you may crave quiet and space—and both are okay.

Through stories, gentle encouragement, and faith-filled perspective, this conversation invites widows to honor their grief while also allowing room for new experiences, new memories, and new expressions of hope in every season.
