There is no training manual for how to move through grief. When you become widowed, there are no guidelines that you can turn to. As adults, our brains want to hold onto grief like a weed. Constantly growing back, we replay and run through the death over and over again. The brain processes grief differently than the heart does. But for those who have children, grief is seen through a completely different lens--and sometimes, it changes how grief is viewed.

In today's episode, I talk with Widower Gary Andrews about how culture teaches men and women to grieve differently (yet we all grieve the same). Gary opens up about the need for men to be more vulnerable with their emotions, and how his children helped him navigate grief and taught him a valuable lesson.
