BW 028: Grief Community: Why it’s important and what to look for

Being a widow is lonely.  Isolating.  Brutal. Today in episode 28 of the Brave Widow show, I’m going to share five reasons why having a community during grief is important and five things to look for to find the community that’s a good fit for you.   We talk about: ~ Grief must be felt ~ We're not taught how to process loss ~ Shared experience of loss ~ Wisdom and insight for decision making ~ A way to give back to others   Quotes: ~ You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with. - Jim Rohn   _____________________________________________________________________________________   The Brave Widow Community is a place where you can connect with other widows, find hope and healing, and begin to dream again for the future.  Learn more at bravewidow.com.     Hey guys, I’m Emily Jones I was widowed at age 37, one month shy of our 20 year wedding anniversary.  Nathan and I have four beautiful children together.  My world was turned completely upside down when I lost him.  With faith, community, and wisdom from others, I’ve been able to find hope, joy, and dream again for the future.  I want to help others do the same, too!   FOLLOW me on SOCIAL: Twitter @brave_widow Instagram @brave_widow Facebook https://www.facebook.com/bravewidow YouTube@bravewidow
