Tools for Processing Grief to Experience Post-Traumatic Growth with Krista St-Germain

Today, I’m speaking with Krista St-Germain. Krista is a Master Certified Life Coach, grief expert, and host of the Widowed Mom Podcast, where she specializes in helping widows move forward and love their life again.
When her husband was killed by a drunk driver just 3 ½ months after their wedding, her life was flipped upside down. As she worked through her loss, she realized that she can leverage her loss to make her life better and has helped others do the same. Her Moms Go On program has given hundreds of widowed moms the tools they need to create futures they can get excited about.
In today’s conversation, we dig into the biggest reasons people avoid talking about grief, the magic that can be found in post-traumatic growth and how grief doesn’t always work in the 5 stages that we’ve always heard about.

This was an excellent talk about grief. The tools explained are new to most of us and I know several in our church and community that will benefit from hearing it. Thank you!
