Kathryn Broullire: Finding the Way Forward after Loss
Send us a message!
My guest today is Kathryn Broullire.
Kathryn and I connected through the Georgetown Leadership Coaching mentorship program and from our first interaction, it has felt like a connection that was meant to be!
Kathryn is a Learning and Development expert and has worked in the educational space for over 13 years. She's completed the Georgetown University Leadership Coaching program and is passionate about helping others find what they love, find their voice, and live out their potential.
When Kathryn and I first met, we quickly learned that we had parallel stories of loss -- my first husband and Kathryn's best friend, Gwen -- both passed away as the result of brain tumors.
It's a tenuous thing to discover this commonality. While the details are unique, the emotional journey contains many points of resonance.
In our conversation, Kathryn shares the story of her soul-sister-best-friend since 7th grade, Gwen. How her brain tumor was discovered through a random accident, and how Kathryn walked beside her friend to the very end.
In talking about our loved ones who are no longer with us on this earth, there's always a mix of tears and smiles. Grief and gratitude. If you have lost a loved one, you likely relate to this. Grief is not linear. Memories contain a multitude of emotions... and different emotions on different days.
Kathryn, I'm so grateful that our paths have connected. Thank you for the gracious sharing of these pieces of your journey and story with Gwen. May the sharing of this story bring comfort or perhaps companionship to someone who is grieving the loss of a loved one.
If for any reason, you are in a place where the weightiness of this story feels like too much, please take care of yourself first and foremost, even if it means not listening today. And please know you are not alone. And may knowing that you are not alone make the difficulty of the day just a little difficult.
