*ABOUT KRISTA:*
I'm Krista St-Germain, Master Certified Life Coach, widow, and mom. After my husband Hugo died, I struggled way more than I needed to because I had inaccurate information about grief. Now I help widowed moms move from survival mode to loving life again through my programs Mom Goes On and Grief Essentials.

This isn't about "getting over" your person. It's about getting the tools, support, and accurate information you need to build a life you genuinely love, while honoring the person you lost.
