Episode 17- Holding Grief, Choosing Joy

In this deeply moving episode of Call the Nurse, Mindie sits down with Jennifer Osler-Bolton — a mom, a widow, and a woman who knows firsthand that love and loss can coexist. After losing her husband, a firefighter, Jen was thrust into a season of unimaginable grief. And yet, less than two years later, she found the courage to open her heart again — marrying another firefighter and redefining what healing can look like after loss. Jen shares her journey through grief, the guilt and judgment that can come with moving forward, and the quiet strength it takes to choose love again. She also opens up about her powerful book, Always Kiss Me Goodbye, a reminder that tomorrow isn’t promised — and that every goodbye matters. This episode is about resilience, faith, honoring the past, and learning how to live fully even when your heart has been broken. If you’ve ever loved, lost, or wondered if joy is possible after devastation — this conversation is for you. 🎙️Connect with Mindie!
