Hi, I'm Kari.


My husband, Eric suffered a massive brain aneurysm with irreversible + instant brain damage. 💔

I was 38-years-old + our girls were 8 & 11.

He collapsed on a Sunday night.
Was in the ICU on life support for 3-days.
Became a donor hero on Friday morning.
And by Saturday I was speaking at his Celebration of Life. 😭

That time was such a FOG, but...

I KNEW TWO THINGS:



💔 I didn't want to become an old bitter woman in my grief, and

💔 I didn't want this one thing to be the thing that made the rest of our lives shit.

The girls needed me.


I had to set the example.

And I knew Eric would want me to...

So I became a student of grief—learning to heal my own broken heart and how to be the best for our girls.

Now I'm a Certified Grief + Widow Coach.


Your person dying is absolutely horrible...


But even harder...

is learning how to feel better so you can live life in their absence.

☎️ Let's Talk.

Schedule a [FREE] one-hour Heart to Heart call with me on Zoom. Share your story with me, and I'll tell you how I can help. Regardless if you decide to move forward with me, you'll find our time together valuable.

Not a day when I don't think of my dead husband, miss him, love him, and wish he were here.


Of course I love + miss my old life
But I've also love this new life I've created in this new chapter.

It. Can. Be. Both.


I have since met, fell in love with, + married Dave — my "Mr. Match" — also a widower. We live in Stilwell, KS, with my daughters, Rachel + Laurel, in the home Eric built.
