Harris views the importance of life planning alongside financial planning and is a Return on Life Advisor™ and CertifiedJack Canfield Methodology Trainer. “When a curve ball hits, such as widowhood, especially in the case of sudden death, a woman is overwhelmed by all the tasks that need to be dealt with. She often tries to hide or ignore her own feelings and emotions,” explains Harris. “The loneliness of the widowhood journey can be isolating and challenging. By journaling, she can learn to capture and process her feelings as they arise, especially in the first two years.” Rise Up: A Widow’s Journal’ guides the journal writer through the stages of widowhood from finding oneself suddenly single to moving forward and living again. Thoughtfully set out in ten chapters with five questions to focus and ponder on, followed by twenty quotes to help prompt writing.
