What My Children Taught Me About Grieving (With Richard Leith)

from Death: A Changing Industry · host achangingindustry.com

When Richard lost his wife Kerry, his world changed overnight. Left to raise three children alone, he chose a path of openness, connection, and empowerment, inviting his children into the heart of grief rather than shielding them from it.From sealing their mum’s coffin to placing birthday cards inside, every act became a moment of healing. In this emotional conversation, Richard reflects on Kerry’s final days, the power of giving his children agency in death, and how their shared grief has shaped their strength.This isn’t just a story of loss. It’s a story of love, bravery, and what it means to honour someone properly.--🙌 OUR SPONSORS National Association of Funeral Directors: https://www.nafd.org.uk/ Westerleigh Group: https://www.westerleighgroup.co.uk/ Obitus: https://www2.obitus.com Laurelo: https://laurelo.co.uk/ Howden: https://www.howdeninsurance.co.uk/small-business/by-business-type/funeral-sector/?int=10805 MuchLoved: https://www.muchloved.com/
