Authors of the book, “Widows Among Us: Stories to Prepare, Be, and Help a Widow," were interviewed on the Zen Success Show

Rebecca K. LaChance, Ph.D., lost her husband of twenty-five years from a heart attack in the early days of the Covid pandemic. Her experience of becoming a widow and grieving was deeply influenced by pandemic restrictions, her neurodiverse brain, childhood traumas, and her introversion. 

Rebecca was a Registered Nurse for over thirty years, specializing in Critical Care. Her academic career focused on the impact of a significant other’s death, including her doctoral thesis about how advance directives were implemented in a military medical hospital. 

Karen Smith Racicot

Certified Life Coach

Karen R. Smith-Racicot (Tall Karen) is a certified Life Coach and co-owned an accounting firm for over 20 years with her late husband. After her husband’s untimely death, she authored the workbook “I Didn’t See That Coming!” as a guide for organizing important legal, financial, and insurance documents. She has spoken on that topic at various venues in the DC metro area.

Karen Justice

M.B.A.

Through twenty-nine lifetime moves, Karen S. Justice, M.B.A. (Short Karen), developed skills for facing change. Becoming a widow, however, was one of the most substantial changes she’s faced. After her husband’s death, Karen focused on building a new future. The effort combined fear, freedom, excitement, disruption, joy, and sadness. She learned much more about challenges and adaptation to change. 

Jocelyn is a Silicon Valley mover, shaker & glass-ceiling breaker. 

While she is the consummate success story of a strong woman making it in a male-dominated world, being a world traveler, and having all the right degrees, know-how and trainings, her backstory is far more interesting.... 

She dropped out of high school, survived a mugging and a sexual assault by her first employer, had her identity stolen, was twice suicidally depressed and countless times thought she wouldn't make it out of the impossible situations she was in. 

Jocelyn's triumph over every setback and learning how to overcome whatever hand life deals you made her a qualified expert on how to protect yourself physically, personally and professionally.
