Episode 12 — The Loneliness That Doesn't Go Away in a Crowd
from Widow's Permission Slips with Gladys Jean Ullstam · host Gladys Jean Ullstam
After Gary died, I learned that being alone and being lonely are two completely different things. I could be surrounded by people who loved me, sitting at a full table, and still feel completely alone because the one person I was looking for wasn't there. In this episode, I talk about the kind of loneliness a crowd can't fix. I share why it isn't a sign that you're broken or failing to move forward, how to stop fighting it when it comes, and why one honest connection can mean more than a room full of people. If you've ever felt lonely for your person even when you weren't alone, this one is for you. Widow's Permission Slips is a production of Ember & Bloom Coaching for Widows, hosted by Gladys Jean Ullstam, certified life coach and Gary's widow.If you are ready to be met exactly where you are, my free discovery call, Holding the Ember, is open at emberandbloomcoaching.com/appointments.Follow the show so a new permission slip finds you each week, and share it with a widow who needs to hear it.Website: emberandbloomcoaching.comYou are not alone in this.
