48: Nourishing Your Head & Heart When Grieving the Loss of a Loved One with Alexie Landry (Lost + Found)

FillYourCupPodcast_LostAndFound

It was Christmas Eve when Alexie Landry woke up to her deceased husband in bed; a moment, nobody is ever ready for, especially at the age of 35. But when you have a 16-month old to take care of, you just have to keep going.

What came after that – the grief, the mourning, the processing, the connections, the new-found love and romance, the light – could also never have been predicted.
