In this heartfelt episode of Widowed 2 Soon, host Michelle Bader Ebersole opens up about her journey nearly five years after the loss of her husband, Luke. With honesty, warmth, and deep empathy, she shares personal updates, reflections on healing, and encouragement for anyone walking through the valley of grief.
Michelle also gives listeners an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at her upcoming book, Widow Goals: Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your Spouse. She reveals the heart behind the book, walking through each of the 30 transformative goals—from the early days of simply getting out of bed, to rediscovering joy, building new traditions, and developing an eternal perspective.
Whether you’re newly widowed or years into your healing journey, this episode offers relatable stories, biblical wisdom, and practical steps to help you move forward with hope. You’ll also hear how you can be part of Michelle’s book launch and prayer teams—joining a community of people determined to not only survive loss, but to live with purpose.
This is more than a book preview—it’s a vulnerable, faith-filled invitation to healing. If you’ve ever wondered whether peace is possible after loss, this episode will remind you: you are not alone, and there is hope ahead.
