My Story(briefly)
At 23, I was married.
At 31, I became a mom.
At 43, my husband was diagnosed with cancer.
At 47, I became a widow. The first of my friends to go through this, I had no clue how to survive this grief.
At 53, I completed a year-long Life Coaching Training and Certification program. Everything I learned here allowed me to finally emerge from my fog and find clarity, direction and HOPE for a life that I could once again love living and, most importantly, THE WAY TO DO IT.
At 54, I could finally let go of all of the pain I was holding on to and instead keep only the love and memories. NOW I could really start living my life again.
At 58, after talking to so many widowed people who were struggling with the same things I struggled with, I finally found my purpose in life: to help other widowed people realize that their lives CAN be full, complete, and truly wonderful again, and to show them what took me so many years to learn: HOW TO DO IT.
Now, at 60, I am a widow who is absolutely loving her life again! It's full, happy, and exciting! I still carry the love but have let go of the pain.
I LOVE helping other widowed people get to this stage. I can help you, too, with The Grief Relief System!
