Acerca de esta escucha
Uplifting and inspiring, leaving hope that it does get better.
Life After Losses is a memoir with a message. Author James LaVeck offers help for grieving while taking listeners on an intimate journey of love, loss, healing, recovery, and discovery.
After seven happy years with his first love, losing his husband sent him to his knees. He shares an honest and heartbreaking story of healing and ultimately falling in love again, only to face the unimaginable, devastating death after fifteen years of his second spouse.
This touching and raw narrative sets out one man’s moving story of his struggle to overcome the tragic label of double-widower by age 48. Combining poignant storytelling with practical advice, LaVeck unveils the true hurdles to the grueling grieving process…and the power of realization paired with coming out the other side.
Life After Losses: A Memoir of Self-Healing is an inspiring look into living after endings. If you appreciate tell-it-like-it-is honesty, reassuring guidance, and heart-wrenching journeys, then you’ll be moved by James LaVeck’s stirring account.

Historia
Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

Historia
After the sudden death of her husband, Sheryl Sandberg felt certain that she and her children would never feel pure joy again. "I was in 'the void,'" she writes, "a vast emptiness that fills your heart and lungs and restricts your ability to think or even breathe." Her friend Adam Grant, a psychologist at Wharton, told her there are concrete steps people can take to recover and rebound from life-shattering experiences. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build.

Historia
On Death and Dying began as a theoretical book, an interdisciplinary study of our fear of death and our inevitable acceptance of it. It introduced the world to the now-famous five stages: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. On Grief and Grieving applies these stages to the process of grieving and weaves together theory, inspiration, and practical advice, all based on Kübler-Ross' and Kessler's professional and personal experiences.

Now Candy Carson introduces us to the private side of a very public figure as she shares the inspiring story of their marriage and their family.

While mediums sometimes resist the flow of communications they receive from the "other side", the best of them - like Bill Philipps - know what solace such messages can provide. The truly gifted also know that their gifts are not unique, that they can be cultivated by anyone with a sincere and open heart. Philipps illuminates all of this for listeners by demystifying what he does, sharing more than 20 inspiring stories of people receiving signs, and, most wonderfully, by providing step-by-step guidance that allows listeners to receive afterlife communications themselves.

Involuntarily single. That's the true story of where Catherine Tidd finds herself just three weeks after turning 31. Widowed with three children under six years old, a rusty resume, no fix-it skills, and no clue how to live life as a widow, Catherine can't help but be a little exasperated with her dead husband for leaving her to deal with life on her own. Catherine's now in charge of her life in a way she never wanted to be, in a way that would have most of us reeling and numb. But she soon realizes that when you call the shots, you can make pedicures one of the stages of grief....

Historia
At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let's face it: Most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

A Hopeful Journey
Loss can leave you feeling adrift, unsure how to move forward. It became a guiding light for me during a difficult time. It's a raw and honest memoir about his experiences with grief, following the loss of two husbands.
The book particularly resonated with me in Chapter titled Transition. LaVeck talks about the challenges of dating after loss, the fear of opening yourself up again. This hit close to home.
After losing a loved one, the thought of dating felt overwhelming. LaVeck's story, however, offered a glimmer of hope. He describes finding love again, a reminder that life can hold joy even after immense loss.

A friend to walk with you through your grief
I recently listened to "Grief Recovery for Adults" by James LaVeck, and it was incredibly meaningful. Having lost two partners, I found LaVeck's insights profoundly comforting. He understands that grief cannot be confined to a timeline and highlights the unique, fluctuating nature of the healing process. His reassurance that intense emotions are normal and not a sign of losing one's sanity was particularly comforting.
For those who have lost a partner, his compassionate approach encourages doing whatever aids your healing, from seeking professional help to engaging in creative outlets. His storytelling is both interesting and therapeutic, blending personal anecdotes with practical suggestions.
I highly recommend this audiobook to anyone experiencing loss. LaVeck's sympathetic strategies and clear guidance provide a path when it is difficult to see one on your own, making it a valuable resource for navigating grief and finding a renewed sense of purpose in life beyond the loss of your partner.
