Podcast about widows/widowers/widowhood
Warm wishes to all for a good New Year.
Merry Christmas to those celebrating the day. Wishing everyone peace in their hearts & minds.
Give us a listen wherever you get your podcasts. We’d love to hear your holiday stories too.
Widowhood to me is a spectrum of color & many words of description.
Does anyone else feel this way? Do you have traditions or things you still do that bring you comfort and happiness this time of year?
Give us a listen. Widowhood is easier when it’s shared.
Check out our new episodes. Listen at www.widowswemakeofit.com/thepodcast or Amazon Music, Apple, IHeart, Stitcher or Spotify. We’d love to hear from you with your stories. Email us at [email protected]
Raise your hand if you feel this way too…..
This one always set my teeth on edge? Does this comment bother anyone else?
Episodes are available at www.WidowsWeMakeOfIt.com, Amazon Music, Apple podcasts, IHeart, Stitcher & Spotify. We’d love to hear your stories too. Let’s build a widow community.
There is something about being near the water for me that stirs memories and brings me a sense of peace.
Our podcast is available on Amazon Music, Apple, IHeart, Spotify, Stitcher & our website at www.WidowsWeMakeOfIt.com. We hope you’ll give us a listen and share with us your widowhood journey.
The absence of his sound was so hard to get used to. Anyone else feel that way in the beginning?
Every widow/widower I have met still loves their late spouse no matter how many years it’s been or relationships that may have followed.
I was so numb for weeks after my husband died. Anyone else stay in the numb zone of shock and disbelief for awhile?
It’s been a while since either Chris or I were in the Year Of Firsts (aka YOF). I think every widow vividly remembers theirs no matter how long it’s been. I also absolutely remember wanting to drop that F bomb a lot during my YOF. Give us a listen wherever you get your podcasts. We would love to hear about your YOF. Having widow buddies helps.
Idowhooda anca eba ardha! Do you agree? Check out our podcast & let us know what you think. Widowhood changes are tough.
So true! Anyone else feel like there were times in that first year that you were waking up on a different planet with aliens?
Earning a nickel for every stupid thing people say to widows could also become a second income stream……
Who would like a nickel for every silly, stupid remark people make about widowhood?
Benefits of living across the street from a widow friend is starting new traditions. Podcast partners and friends, we do a drink exchange on Thanksgiving. Chris & her daughter sent over apple cider mimosas to Laura’s crew and Laura & her youngest sent over apple cider margaritas to her and her daughter. New traditions help build new memories.
Anyone else feel this way as the holiday season kicks off?
If you’re traveling for Thanksgiving or just need some downtime for a break, listen to our latest episodes of the podcast.
Just one of the things we talk about in our first podcast. Has this been true for you?
We hope you give it a listen. We’d love to hear your feedback and stories too.
We're excited to announce that the first episode of the podcast has been published! You can find it on Apple Music & Spotify. It will be coming soon to IHeart Media, Pandora & Amazon Music. Drop us a a note and let us know what you think! More episodes coming soon.
There is no formula for grief.
A widow’s truth.
It’s impossible to be who I used to be before my husband died. His death and absence in my life changed me forever.

A former field hockey coach I worked with died last night of cancer. She left a grieving husband and four children ages 6, 8, 11 & 13. And while I completely agree that our love is stronger than death, getting used to the absence of our spouse’s everyday sounds is heartbreakingly hard. I still feel married to my late husband in my heart. Does anyone else feel that way?
💔
Another widow truth!
Powerfully true…..
One of my favorite poems. Do you have any favorite poems, books or quotes that bring you comfort?
I think every widow & widower feels this way.
My podcast partner, Chris, and I love to talk about our late husbands. I have a friend who wrote me a poem once on one of the anniversaries of my husband’s death that she titled, “The Friend I Never Knew” because she felt she knew him from me talking about him. It seems like so many people assume talking about our late spouses brings or causes us pain. Do you like to talk about your late spouse? Will you only talk about him/her to certain people?
Realized this morning that no matter how long it’s been that I still miss morning coffee on the weekends with my late husband. It’s been almost 12 1/2 years since he died. There is no expiration on grief or missing someone. What do you miss doing with your late spouse on weekend mornings?
Oh yes there have been days like this. Have you had days like this as a widow?
Sometimes I have been all of these things in the span of hours or one day. Anyone else?
This has been true for me. What about you?
I still subscribe to this every day? What about you?
