“It is really important to be honest with kids about difficult situations. And one way you can do that is to let their questions be your guide. There's a rule of thumb, if a kid is old enough to ask a question, they're old enough to get an honest answer.”
This week Bounce Back Stronger, host Donna Ferris sits down with Jenny Lisk, founder of the Widowed Parent Institute and author of Future Widow and Widowed Parents Unite.
Jenny shares her personal journey through loss, how she found her purpose in helping other widowed parents, and the invaluable lessons she’s learned along the way. From memoir writing as an act of service (which involved wearing a shirt that said “Nevertheless, She Persisted”) to supporting children through grief, Jenny’s insights serve as a beacon for anyone navigating life after loss. She also lists concrete actions you can take to help grieving families. Whether navigating your own loss or supporting someone who is, this episode is filled with practical tips, wisdom, and hope.
