I sit down with my guest host and upcoming podcaster Marcia Boarders as I open up about my experiences with widowhood and my very own process of moving forward. I discuss why dealing with grief does not necessarily require you to jump back immediately into the dating scene and remarry – it is all about choosing and loving yourself. I talk about my own dating experience after my husband’s passing, which is centered on intentionality and purpose. I also emphasize the importance of having a supportive community and the benefits of undergoing therapy when navigating through your grieving journey.

I am sharing my experience of loving the same man for 32 years, a mother to two adult children, a retired military officer, a breast cancer survivor, and my connections with others.
