Joseph James Reflects on Being a Widowed Dad of Three Young Children

Written By Jenny Lisk

I had a great discussion with Joseph James for this episode. I’m really glad that Joseph reached out to me about coming on the show, because this show is not just for moms. It’s is very definitely for all widowed parents. And I think it’s useful to hear a variety of perspectives, and a variety of styles of grieving, and parenting. And as Joseph tells us, he didn’t feel like parenting came naturally to him, and he felt like he needed to learn how to be a better dad.
