Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and what I’m doing. When Donnie died, after twenty-seven years of marriage, I found myself lost and unbalanced.  Donnie was only fifty-three and I never thought I would be a widow at the age of fifty.

I had to re-think my future and I ask myself – “What do I do now?”  I started by talking to other widows and hearing their journeys of grief and healing. Each story gave me some tip or advice that I used for my own grief and healing.

I wrote the book "The Sisterhood of Widows" from the stories the widows shared with me. Before I knew it I was getting certified as a Grief Recovery Specialist, Law of Attraction Facilitator and Early Intervention Field Traumatologist. 

I coach organizations, small groups and individuals about how life changes when you lose someone you love.  I provide tips and advice about real life and that grief is a journey that we travel as we heal.

I believe that when men and women are able to think, talk, write and cry about the loss of their loved ones, they will find healing.  Healing comes from mutual support, sharing our journeys and understanding our own grief experiences. I provide some advice and just a bit of real life so that you can see that grief has a process.  It is different and yet the same if your loss is a parent, spouse, child or a cherished friend.  It is important to recognize the uniqueness of your own grief journey.

One thing for sure, if you open yourself up to the possibilities of life, you just don’t know where it can lead you.  So, don’t be afraid.  The worse has already happened – you have lost your loved one - so from now on, go after life with all you have.  No one knows better than you just how fast life can be gone, so don’t hold back.
