How Can I Help? A Simple, Yet Powerful and Maybe Life Changing Question EP 55
It\u2019s been many years ago, but once upon a time, Sherrie Dunlevy had a baby boy named Brandon. He lived just 29 days. \u201cHe made a greater impact on so many lives in just 29 days than some have in a lifetime,\u201d she explains.
The aftermath of Brandon\u2019s passing was unexpected in so many ways. Lifelong friends vanished. People they would never have imagined would, showed up. Instead of allowing herself to get caught up in the obvious question of \u201cWhy did this happen to us, to me?\u201d Sherrie moved on to asking: \u201cWhat now?\u201d
She took a close look at her life, her work, her marriage, her relationships, and decided she wanted to live a life of purpose and passion. And she wrote a book \u2013 How Can I Help? \u2013 to offer others insight into how they might help someone in grief, or going through difficult times, when the right words are elusive.
She\u2019s since done a lot of work helping others understand, sit with, and move through grief. \u201cGrief is the loss of anything we hold dear,\u201d she explains. \u201cIt might be death, a divorce, loss of a job, a medical diagnosis\u2026 and we need to learn that it\u2019s ok \u2013 healthy \u2013 to talk through these things, even when it\u2019s hard or the words fail us.\u201d
And, feeling called to be an inspirer, she\u2019s focused on being what she calls an \u201cInspirationista\u201d! Not only does she share the \u201cinspiration strikes\u201d she receives, but she seeks out other sources of inspiration and shares them, as well. Striving to live an authentic life \u2013 who she was truly meant to be \u2013 and hoping to model that behavior for others, Sherrie is a dynamic force of energy.
