Informative, Supportive and Uplifting

I am only new to widowhood at nearly 2 years, but the podcast is helpful to listen to others people’s experiences and how they have rebuilt their lives. It makes me feel like I’m not doing everything wrong ! Great that there is something out there for us to discuss the issue of grief !

Less interuptions

Good and important podcast but wish the host wouldn’t interrupt the guests so much! It’s infuriating.

A hard but important and beautiful listen

I personally haven’t been widowed, but as someone who has a friend who has I think this is a really important listen. I myself experienced the death of a close family member at a young formative age and I know that sense of your world changing overnight. I’m finding this incredibly podcast useful in order to know how to support my friend, but also cathartic for myself to hear my own grief described in ways I hadn’t thought of. These ladies are being so so brave and honest and I commend them so much for this. Well done
