Love in the Mourning
by Kathleen Powell
Love in Mourning is not about fixing grief, it’s about telling the truth about it. We talk about the messy, complicated reality of loss: the waves, the silence, the myths that don’t hold up, and the pressure to “move on” when your life has fundamentally changed. We are going to get real here. We are even going to talk about hopes and dreams we have now. You’ll hear real conversations about losing a partner, dating as a widow, not dating as a widow and figuring out how to live in a life you didn’t choose. Because you don’t go back to who you were before grief. We even talk about the freedom that can come with loss. We strip away what isn't real. Grief has a way of stripping us down to nothing. This is where we become unfiltered. Join me as we unpack this life after loss, honesty.
