The stories behind Grief & Joy.
Grief & Joy didn't begin as a business idea.
It began with heartbreak.
After losing my husband, Todd, I discovered something no one had prepared me for: life doesn't simply return to normal after loss. It keeps changing. Sometimes in painful ways. Sometimes in beautiful ways.
Often both at the exact same time.
Founder Reflections is where I share those moments.
These aren't polished speeches or perfectly packaged lessons. They're honest conversations about grief, joy, reinvention, retirement, dating, marriage, motherhood, widowhood, empty nesting, aging, building a new life, and everything in between.
Some reflections are funny.
Some are hard.
Some will probably make you cry.
Most will remind you that you're not the only one trying to figure life out.
Because that's really what Grief & Joy is about.
Learning that it's possible to carry both.
Join us as we explore the realities of life's biggest changes—with honesty, humor, vulnerability, and hope.
Because life is rarely one thing. It's grief & joy.
