Cindy Burns, Life Coach for Widows, from pain to purpose and from grief to growth

Welcome to Finding Purpose,

Life Coaching for Widows & Widowers

Helping widows & widowers go from pain to purpose

and from grief to growth.

Does this sound like you?

You wake up in the morning feeling like the only thing you have to look forward to is going to sleep again at the end of the day.

Your friends and family don't seem to understand.

You feel confused, adrift, and lost.

Have you ever wondered . . .

How long does this pain last?

How do I handle the loneliness?

What's my purpose?

Who am I now?

Will I ever be happy?

How do I deal with . . . (guilt, uncaring
friends/family, things they used to take
care of, etc.)

My Story

I became a widow on August 2, 2011. I grieved hard for 2 months. Then life happened, as it so often does, and interrupted my grieving process. My family needed me and I was there for them and I was strong for them. But there was nobody to be strong for me. Eventually, my 6 adult sons no longer needed me on a regular basis. I felt lost; I had no reason to get out of bed in the morning. I was depressed and still grieving. I grieved for my husband and the life I thought we would have at this point in our lives. I hated the feeling of having no purpose. Would I ever feel normal again?

I knew something had to change.

I knew I needed to find my new purpose.

I found mine.

I can help you find yours.

What if I told you . . .

it doesn't have to be this way?
you can wake up excited for the day ahead?
you can feel happy again, without feeling guilty?

TESTIMONIAL
