Gutsy Health | Nutrition and Medicine

"Trust that there's purpose in your pain. Allow yourself to experience the myriad of emotions—grief, sadness, frustration, anger, but also simultaneously joy, laughter, and fun – knowing each has an expiration and will ultimately level you up."

In the depths of loss, we often discover heights of love we never knew existed.

Have you ever wondered how people find the strength to move forward after losing someone they love? 

Join us as we sit down with Jessica White and Lindsey Mair, two remarkable women who have walked through the fire of losing their partners and emerged with profound insights to share. We dive into the raw, transformative journey of grief and loss. Together, we courageously share our personal experiences, offering you a window into the complex world of widowhood and healing.

This isn't just a discussion about pain and sadness; it's about finding unexpected beauty, strength, and purpose in the face of heartbreak.
