Conversations With A Widow:
​​Speaking the Unspoken

Widowhood. Welcome to the conversation.
What's that? You haven't heard about this conversation? Yeah, I hadn't either - until I became a widow. Even then, it was hard to find.

This book, now available on BookShop.org, Amazon.com, and other online retailers, tracks one widow's journey - my journey - into the unknown. In it, you'll have candid and vulnerable conversations about how the loss of a partner transformed my identity and my faith, affected my friendships, my daily habits ... things that inform how I exist in the world. It is intended to be a resource for those coming behind me, a place to have those hard conversations that you don't know where else to have.

These experiences are written in the context of losing a partner, but many of the themes discussed in this book may be applicable to those on other journeys.

This website itself is a collection of stories, experiences, and epiphanies I've experienced since Rod died - feel free to have a look around. 
​In addition, there is a page dedicated to my book to continue the conversations begun in there.  Please feel free to use the comments to share your story or to ask a question, and to respond to others' comments.
 "Reading this book felt like one of those meaningful conversations you have with a great friend. This conversation will no doubt lead to a pivoting in some much needed ways. I have been enjoying thinking on my own identity, spirituality, life choices, and perspectives since finishing the book and excited to see where this takes me." -Rebecca P., Amazon Review
