Summary

So much of what we’re experiencing - from the roller-coaster of emotions and what we believe is or isn’t possible for us - feels so true, doesn’t it? However, just because it’s there as the content of your experience doesn’t mean it’s what you’re limited to.

That’s because you are the context, not the content, and this week, I’m sharing a new perspective on widowhood that might break your brain in the best way possible.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Widowed Mom podcast, episode 250. You are the context, not the content, a new perspective on widowhead.
0:11.3	Welcome to the Widowed Mom podcast, the only podcast that offers a proven process to help you work through your grief to grow, evolve, and create a future you can
0:23.2	truly look forward to.
0:25.2	Here's your host, master certified life coach, grief expert, widow, and mom, Krista
0:31.5	St. Germain.
0:33.7	Hey there, welcome to episode 250.
0:37.1	What? 250 episodes. It's kind of hard for me to believe. Sometimes,

1:36.5	So I was reading this book primarily, you know, because I own a business.
1:41.0	And they said in the book, you are the context, not the content. And it was one of those
1:49.3	moments where I was like, oh, yes, that's it. That's exactly what I've been saying. And they said it in a
1:55.9	way that was so eloquent and surprisingly simple. You are the context, not the content. So I want to tell you what that
2:03.4	means, what I think it means. And I want to offer you a way to put it into practice as you're listening
