This talk is for you
When your spouse dies, everything changes.
You've lost your partner, your best friend, your beloved β along with all of your shared plans and hopes for the future. Nothing is as you expected it to be or wanted.
And now you are navigating a world they are no longer in. Not just your heart β your whole world has changed. Your identity. Your finances. Your relationships. Your daily rhythms. Your sense of who you even are now.
The people around you mean well. But so few of them truly understand the weight of this loss. The loneliness of it. The way it reaches into every corner of your life. The way you can feel like half a pair of scissors.
This grief is yours. And it deserves dedicated time and space.
In this free talk, David Kessler speaks directly to the grief that comes when the person you chose dies.
This is your grief. It's unique in all the world β because it's reflective of your love. No one else had their love for your spouse the way you did.
