I Never Thought I’d Be a Widow: Laura’s Story After 28 Years of Marriage

from Breaking the Silence · host Raynea Wallace

Today, I’m sitting with my sweet friend Laura, who’s walking through something no one is ever truly prepared for. Just three months ago, her husband went to heaven after some major life changes. After 28 years of marriage, she never expected to carry the title “widow.” In this honest and tender conversation, Laura shares what it’s been like to lose the love of her life—and how she’s learning to take the next breath, one day at a time. We talk about love, loss, identity, and the grace that shows up in the quietest places. If you’ve ever had to keep living after life turned upside down, this episode is for you. It’s tender, raw, and real—because sometimes, healing begins when we finally break the silence."Grief is the price of deep love—but even in the ache, God is near. He’s not asking you to have it all figured out. Just to take the next step, and then the next. You’re not alone in the dark—there’s grace for this part of the journey too."When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. — Isaiah 43:2You can connect further with Laura on the following platforms:IGhttps://www.instagram.com/voice_unbound?igsh=MWcxNzJidDNjdmJtcA%3D%3D&utm_source=qrFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/VoiceUnboundCoaching?mibextid=LQQJ4dWebsitehttps://voiceunboundcoaching.com YouTube https://youtube.com/@lauraardwellnesslifecoachingTIKTOKhttps://www.tiktok.com/@laura.ard1?_t=8nbkhor6pqd&_r=1Laura has also extended an offer to each of you for a free resource:Five day journal prompt “Faith and Trauma”. sent to your email each morning Click here https://voiceunboundcoaching.com/homehttps://voiceunboundcoaching.com/home
