In this week’s episode of The Widow Podcast I am joined by John Webb, founder of Embark2 🎙️

John is the founder of Embark2, a wonderful support network for widows and widowers offering holidays and events on a not for profit basis.

John’s wife Joyce sadly died in 2013 which has taken him on a journey where he now helps so many on their own grieving journeys make meaningful connections, experience new opportunities and achieve things they never dreamed possible.

In this episode we talk about the devastating effects the loss of a life partner can have on us, and how we are able to work through these challenges by surrounding ourselves with like minded people and pushing ourselves to try different things.

John offers a safe, supportive space for widows and widowers to travel and explore the world whilst being surrounded by people who just know.

This can have a hugely positive impact on our healing journeys, allowing us to still live life whilst also honouring our loved ones, taking them forward with us, not leaving them behind.

Embarking on our chapter two is scary, we feel vulnerable and alone, but John has a wonderful way of helping those grieving the loss of a life partner realise that life after loss is still possible, offering so much hope in a dark place, and that is a gift.

I hope you enjoy listening to this conversation as much as I enjoyed having it.
