I’m Sorry We’re Friends With Special Guest Lauren Lentz

I am so thrilled to be able to share this conversation with you as Lauren offers so much hope and wisdom from her own widow journey. I know a lot of it will resonate.

Lauren has shared her story on her instagram page @imsorrywerefriends which is where I first met Lauren a couple of years ago and have continued to be inspired by her.

Lauren's Husband Kevin was tragically killed whilst out cycling with friends in November 2019 and their son Lawson was only 14 months old at the time.

In this conversation we talk about the shock and devastation brought on by the sudden loss of a life partner and how our grief evolves over time.

Lauren tells us how there were times she felt claustrophobic in her own body, that nothing felt natural but how connecting with other widows helped her find her way, feeling seen, heard and understood.

We talk about;

Jealousy,

Panic attacks and depression,

Loneliness,

Finding joy,

Choosing to suffer,

Honouring your person,

Dating.

Lauren spoke about so much in this episode that truly resonated with my own journey, discussing how we are able to grow through our grief and use the lessons to help us create a meaningful life after loss.
