#097 Today I'm talking with author and podcast host of Terrible, Thanks for Asking, Nora McInerny. Nora became a widow at a young age. While grief hit her like a freight train, she still manages to find cracks of light through humor and amazing communities like the Hot Young Widows Club and Still Kickin.
Still Kickin is the fulfillment of her late husband's dream to help families find support in hard times. We're talking about the impact of grief on your brain and body, and the practical financial advice Nora has for anyone else walking out a similar journey.
