I’m Jessye Wilden, a grief coach and the author of We Wrote Your Name in Color. For two decades I worked as a certified peer counselor and advocate, walking with women through crisis and loss. After our family’s own sudden loss, my husband and I took in two children who had lost their parents. Hope after loss is not theory for me. It is the road we live on.
