EP1 - My Story, My Inspiration

Through the loss of my wife to cancer, I've come to understand the most valuable asset my family and friends possess is the ability to lift me up when I've needed it most with the simplest of gestures. There is no perfect formula to help someone grieve, the being there, listening, and providing a slice of normal is often exactly what is needed. However, it's hard for some people to know and understand what their grieving friend is experiencing every day. The most difficult task for those on the outside is understanding the many facets of loss are indeed present most every single day. This podcast and blog exist to help us understand the process of loss with the help of those who are living it. In this episode, I introduce you to my story, my family's story. Come with me as I discuss what has inspired me to create this podcast, Journey to Grateful, and the hopes I have of building a community of support and resource for others who are navigating through their own loss. Understand the "why" of my journey and the plans for this growing community and my many contributors. Learn how you, too can become a voice in this community by sharing your story to help others. Invite friends and family who have experienced loss or know someone who has, and help them help others through this podcast and our stories on the website. Finally, help us to shape this podcast with your suggestions and build this community to become your community.
