    Love Doesn't End: A Young Widow's Journey Through Grief and Starting Over

    Sabrina never imagined she'd be planning her husband's funeral six days before her 30th birthday. Or that two years later, she'd be packing up the home she and Tony built together and moving alone to New York—a city they’d dreamt of living in someday. In this episode of Are We Okay? host Kate Cervini sits down with Sabrina, a 33-year-old widow who lost her husband Tony suddenly while the two were building their life together in Atlanta. Sabrina found Kate on Instagram in the early days of Kate's own grief, and this episode marks the first time the two have been able to truly connect as two women grieving their partners.  This is a conversation that doesn't shy away from the messy, complicated reality of early grief: the blur of logistics, the anger, the strange warping of time that loss creates, and the bone-deep loneliness even when surrounded by people who love you. But it's also a conversation about expansion and about what happens when you stop letting life tell you what to do and start asking yourself what you actually want. Sabrina's story of leaving Atlanta, moving to New York, and finding Tony's spirit in city sunsets is a testament to the fact that grief doesn't get smaller—you just grow around it. What you'll learn... (01:09) Who Sabrina is and who Tony was to her: a life built together in Atlanta, cut short far too soon. (03:32) What those first days and weeks of grief actually felt like. (09:09) How grief warps your concept of time and why Sabrina now thinks of her life in two distinct stages: before and after Tony. (16:46) The particular loneliness of losing a partner and why even the most supportive friends couldn't fill that void. (30:29) How Sabrina began posting about grief on social media, talking into the air, and why it became an unexpected lifeline. (35:53) What finally pushed Sabrina to make the leap to New York. (41:08) Channeling Tony's spirit and courage to take a risk she never would have taken before losing him. (50:58) What grief has taught Sabrina about herself. (54:08) Why Sabrina’s love for Tony has only continued to grow
