After experiencing the devastating loss of her husband in an accident that she personally witnessed, our guest this week went on a journey to not only work through her own grief, but also create a space for other women who had been through similar experiences to come together, heal, and experience personal GROWTH..

Today I am welcoming the host of The Widowed Mom podcast, and grief coach, Krista St. Germain to discuss the life she discovered after walking through traumatic loss and why she believes there is not only \\u201clife\\u201d after death, but there can also be happiness. She shares with us about the concept of \\u201cPost-Traumatic Growth\\u201d and how we can use that to infuse hope into our healing process.

Krista also shares with us how sometimes we use \\u201cnumbness\\u201d as a protective shield and the importance for us to experience every emotion and work through it. She gives an unconventional perspective about how we can experience any emotion without allowing it to rule our life and still function in the midst of pain.

We also discuss the importance of staying present, moving past resistance, and making a choice on how we view ourselves through grief. This is a powerful conversation INFUSED by hope despite the fact it is centered around such a difficult topic. We hope this brings light to whatever circumstance you are going through and helps you to feel not as alone.

Lastly, we want to invite you to our private Facebook group, Hope to Recharge, where you will find a supportive community who will stand beside you in your mental health journey- because as always- together is BETTER!
