2018 was a busy year. I responded to over 1,000 emails, posted over 40 videos to my YouTube channel, and commented on countless posts in the Dating a Widower Facebook group. One of the things I heard from you over and over was the desire to discuss some of these issues in a private, one-on-one setting. As a result, I decided to offer consulting/coaching sessions starting next month.
To kick things off, I’m offering five free, 30-minute relationship coaching sessions. Four sessions will go to women who are currently in a relationship with a widower and one will go to a widower who's in a relationship or looking to get back in the dating game. You have until December 31, 2018 at 11:59 p.m. Mountain time to enter. Winners will be chosen as random and be notified that they won on January 2, 2019. Free session must be redeemed no later than Saturday, January 12, 2019. To enter. click here.
