Apparently, Once Wasn't Enough π
Bad Girls Guide to Being a Widow
Apparently, the universe looked at my life and thought, "You know what this bitch needs? A sequel."
Welcome to the very first episode ofΒ Bad Girls Guide to Being a WidowΒ β the podcast nobody wants to qualify for, but here we fucking are.
I'm Christine. I've been widowed twice, both before turning 40. My first husband, Martin, was murdered when I was just 23. Years later, I lost my second husband, Jay, to suicide.
And somehow, through the heartbreak, trauma, questionable decisions, and a truly impressive amount of dark humour, I'm still standing. Usually with a coffee, occasionally with a designer handbag, and sometimes with absolutely no idea what the fuck I'm doing.
In this episode, I'm sharing my story β the love, the losses, the people who showed up, the people who disappeared, and the completely unhinged moments nobody prepares you for when your entire world falls apart.
We're talking about grief, survival, guilt, finding yourself again, and why healing doesn't always look like inspirational quotes and peaceful walks through the forest.
Because sometimes healing looks like therapy.
Sometimes it looks like Botox.
And sometimes it looks like telling the universe to kindly fuck all the way off.
I'll also share a little something you can try on your own healing journey, because this podcast isn't just about surviving the worst things life throws at us. It's about figuring out how to actually live again.
Real Talk. Real Healing. Real Bad Girls.Β π
Content note: This episode discusses murder, suicide, traumatic loss, grief, and mental health. Strong language and dark humour throughout.
