I have a special guest on the show today. Yolanda (@h3haven) and I met through a mutual life coaching certification program that we're a part of. We connected on a topic of grief. And while Yolanda isn't a widow, she has personally experienced a very deep grief and loss, which she'll tell you about. I think you're really going to enjoy hearing from Yolanda.
 
We talk about:
~ Giving yourself grace
~ Don't compare your journey with someone else's
~ Allow yourself to feel whatever the feelings are
~ You have to be proactive in your healing journey
 
Quotes:
~ "I wanted to heal properly and not just go through the motion because we can have an Academy Award performance that everything is okay, and then at home when we're all alone, we're really struggling. I think we have to be honest with where we are. And know that it's okay for you to struggle."
~ "I allow myself to feel whatever the feelings are. I don't deny myself of being human and feeling those things. And it's a process, but we have to be comfortable with it."

Hey guys, I’m Emily Jones
I was widowed at age 37, one month shy of our 20 year wedding anniversary.  Nathan and I have four beautiful children together.  My world was turned completely upside down when I lost him.  With faith, community, and wisdom from others, I’ve been able to find hope, joy, and dream again for the future.  I want to help others do the same, too!
