0:00.0	Welcome to the Widowed Mom Podcast, episode 43, when things around us seem crazy.
0:10.3	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 truly look forward to.
0:24.2	Here's your host, Master Certified Life Coach, Grief Expert, Widow, and Mom, Krista St. Germain.
0:32.7	Hey there, welcome back to another episode of the podcast. I want to do something a little bit different
0:38.9	this week, and that's based on what's going on in my life, and I'm pretty certain what's going on
0:45.5	in your life as we deal with the coronavirus. My weekend started out a little bit differently
