Nora McInerny is an author, speaker and host of “Terrible, Thanks for Asking” - a podcast that lets people be honest about the hard things in life. Nora lost her husband, Aaron when she was just 32 years old and is currently remarried and raising a blended family. Today she shares:  What it was like finding out her boyfriend had a brain tumor after about a year of dating - and why deciding to marry him was the best decision she ever made.  How she coped with grief and what she wishes she would have done differently. Why it’s so important to be honest with those close to you about how you’re doing. How she and her window’s family have maintained such a close bond and why that is sadly not always the case. How her current husband and kids make space for her husband who passed. How she continues to celebrate her husband Aaaron and keep his memory alive. How she has been able to use humor to deal with all of the painful things she’s experienced.  Why time is almost meaningless to her now. Dealing with extreme burnout and how she’s navigating it. Why she wishes she had more compassion for herself. Why Parenthood is the biggest examination of your own ego.
