On Not Doing Grief Right, Believing God is Still Good, and Honest Talk About Death and Widowhood with Leslie Harter-Berg

Episode 109

Oh this episode is special! Today I am talking with my new friend who feels like an old friend, Leslie Harter-Berg, author of the brand new book You’re So Strong: on Grief and Letting Go of My Favorite Compliment. Leslie is the daughter in law of a dear friend of mine, so I felt like I knew so much of her story. But reading Leslie’s book allowed me to know her so much better. Her book is honest, raw, real, funny, tender, helpful and hopeful. And yes, it is a book on grief, widowhood and losing her husband suddenly at age 30.

Leslie’s book is the kind of book you need to read whether the story is your own, or to prep you to walk through the story with someone else. We should all read this book!

But before you do, listen to my conversation with Leslie. We laughed, I cried, I gushed and fangirled, and we got to the heart of things. Leslie is an absolute gem. I know you’ll love this one!
