In the Wake of Grief: Lauren Walker

In the last 2 years, Lauren Walker was married to her long-time partner Trent. They bought a house, planned their kitchen remodel, and saved up for their honeymoon. But then Trent died, suddenly and unexpectedly. And just 2 months into their marriage, Lauren was alone.

As you can imagine, everything changed for Lauren with Trent’s passing, but one thing she’s kept as a constant is a van that belonged to Trent. Right now, she’s traveling in it full time around Australia, allowing herself room to process her grief, and sharing her thoughts openly online with others in hopes of encouraging others to embrace their lives and loved ones fully, every day.
