In today's episode, I'm joined by Elizabeth Horn and John Polo as we dive into the complex and often emotional journey of dating after the loss of a spouse. John opened our discussion with his powerful analogy about "how they get their own damn cup," setting the tone for a candid conversation on navigating uncharted territory.  We talked about the range of emotions you may encounter—fear, guilt, and vulnerability—and how essential it is to give yourself patience and grace.  John also shared insights from his book, How to Date a Widow 101, and how you can find beauty in life again.  This episode offers a heartfelt exploration of embracing life after loss and finding new ways to celebrate it.
