Dr. Carrie West found herself widowed at 29 and raising two young sons, Nathan who was 6 and Holden who was about 18 months. They learned to support each other in their grief and, as time went on, found ways to help others who experience the death of their partner or parent. Carrie now has a PhD in interpersonal and family communication and focuses her research on widows and resilience while Holden has his BA in Psychology and works in behavioral health. For this workshop, he is joining her to bring both their professional and personal experiences together. They will share their own journeys, research-based tools, and practical and actionable steps for creating a future you might just love.
