Welcome to Choosing Joy After Grief and Loss

  Where we learn to love our lives again with our grief

Hi and welcome I'm Pam Stoddard

(Mom, Grammy, Christian, Life Coach and Widow)

I am so excited your here.

What if I told you it's possible to really live again, to be happy again after your loss.   Would you believe me?

Since I'm a Widow too I'm guessing your thinking "I wish..."

When I lost my husband Randy, my world as I knew it collapsed.  Yours did/has too.  The first months were rough but at same time it was get the check list done, stay busy, stay on top of stuff.  You can relate - right?   Yet widow fog, oh my the brain fog, I thought I was losing my mind.   Your not, I promise - widow fog is real and it's evil, but it's your brains way of protecting you so say thanks.  Then, the loneliness set in, the isolation, the realness of it all.  I missed his hug.  I was empty. 

On top of that, I had anxiety and PTSD to deal with for the first time in my life.   I tried therapy and meds and grief share and while they all have their place to help get on your feet, it wasn't until I found my Life Coach that things started to make sense, that I started to have hope again.

I was not accepting my reality, I thought I was but I was wishing and hoping and holding on to what was.   Once I realized how my brain worked and what I was choosing to do, I grew.  I grew with my grief, not around/under/through or over.   I started to allow compassion and love for me, I started acknowledging my strengths and I started accepting right where I was AND creating a new life that I wanted that was for me. 

Life Coaching was life changing for me, figuratively and literally.  My passion has always been helping others, and I see the need in widows.  We are just stuck, stuck dreaming, stuck battling reality vs accepting it, just letting life happen around us and sticking our toe in once in awhile.  Well, that is just not good enough, not for me or you.

So, I decided I want to help you...widows, take back your life.  Not the old one, but to love the old one and cherish it AND create a vibrant New life you love and look forward to.

I am ready, I'm going with or without you, but please I want you along.  My wish is every widow decides and learns her life is not over, her best days are not behind her, that she is strong and she can Love her life again.   I want you to feel what laughing from your gut feels like again. 

Let's create a life YOU LOVE, one you look forward to and one where you feel again, one where you belly laugh again.  

P.S.  I can help you live the life of your dreams... your life is waiting for you.  Let's do this.
