For young widows, the journey through grief can be particularly challenging. But within the depths of sorrow, there is also the potential for incredible strength and resilience. Today, we’re sharing the inspiring story of one recent client, a young widow who despite having devastating circumstances thrust upon her, has been gifted the ability to continue to cherish and embrace life.
That love of life and “carpe diem” attitude enabled her to choose to set aside time in her busy life, as a newly single mom of three, to find solace, empowerment, and a renewed sense of self through a Spark Session at Show Your Spark, located in Braintree, MA.
This Spark Alumni candidly shares her experiences of navigating grief publically to help normalize grief and the transformative power of a Spark Session to reignite her inner spark, confidence, and sexiness. Her story, told in her own words, is a testament to the human spirit’s capacity for healing and growth.
Normalizing Grief
“I’m a young widow and mom of 3 young girls. I’m a good friend and love being present with whomever I am spending time. Becoming a widow unexpectedly is certainly an obstacle. It’s not that I’m overcoming it; it’s knowing that I have to honor the grief because it is a part of me forever. That makes the journey doable. I’m proud to set an example in trying to normalize grief in our culture among my network of family and friends.”
“Waiting is no longer in my vocabulary.”
“I’ve always wanted to do a photography session but never had the time (or so I thought.) After my husband passed away, I was blessed with a lust for life and a carpe diem attitude. Waiting is no longer in my vocabulary and I was so excited to go for it. The results far exceeded my expectations!”
Excited for the Experience
Leading up to the sessions, I wasn’t really nervous because I am a fan of trusting the process. During hair and makeup, I had a good time relaxing and chatting about Taylor Swift (haha). I felt completely comfortable and excited for the experience.”
Feeling Free and Confident
“During my Spark Session, I felt the most free and confident during the wet t-shirt scene. Something about a little chaos (water) being thrown into the mix that made it exciting and fun!
As a result of my Spark Experience, I definitely view myself as sexy and confident now.”
