There are almost four million widowers in the United States alone. Unfortunately, there are very limited resources and services available that could help them with their grieving process. Fred Colby, a widower himself, is on a mission to make a real difference in this alarming matter. In this conversation, he shares how he raises awareness about the utmost need for widowers to access proper support systems, saving them from adopting unhealthy practices or starting an addiction. Fred also explains how widowers can reinvent themselves after losing their partners, the benefits of in-house care, and why they must never make huge decisions (or get into a new relationship) in the first year of the grieving journey.
