A free live workshop for widowed moms

Stop lying awake wondering if you're getting it wrong. Start trusting yourself again.

What To Do When You Don't Know What To Do is for the widowed mom who feels stuck, worn out by everyone's opinions, and missing the woman who used to know her own mind.

You didn't choose this life.

You didn't choose to become a widow. Who would choose to have her heart bleeding out in front of the whole world while she is still trying to keep her whole life together?

You didn't choose for your kids to be falling apart at school, for making dinner to feel like climbing Mt. Everest, or for your boss to think “bereavement” only takes five days.

You want your old life back. A partner to share life's ups and downs. Someone besides you to witness your kids' ups and downs, too.

Or maybe your marriage was complicated, and your grief is complicated.

You still would never have chosen for your spouse to leave this earth.

On top of all that heaviness, everyone has opinions about what you should do.

You're so deep in grief and overwhelmed by the kids, the money, the house—and your own emotions—that you haven't even had time to figure out what you want.

And what you want matters. Because it's your life. Your kids. Your money. Your home.

Let's figure it out—together.

Join me, Certified Life Coach and seasoned widow Leslie McCaddon, for a free LIVE workshop with no replays. I can help you figure this shit out.

We'll work on how to:

Find time to actually think for longer than 30 seconds at a time.
Make a daily and weekly plan that fits the life you're living now, not the one you used to have.
Use an easy-to-remember way to trust your gut and make decisions with confidence, based on what makes sense to you.
Remember how to live with the courage you think you've lost—and live for yourself and your kids, not to please Aunt Martha.

Let me show you how. ❤️

What you'll walk away with

This isn't about making one perfect choice. It's about no longer feeling like life is happening to you, and remembering you're the one who gets to decide what happens next.

Hear your own voice again

When your mother, your in-laws and your friends all have an opinion, you'll know how to find what you actually think underneath theirs.

Decisions you can live with

About the kids, the money, the house, the future, without the 2 a.m. spiral of wondering if you're about to screw it all up.

"This is what I've decided."

Being able to say it, and mean it, without needing everyone around you to agree first.

One real next step

Not a 40-item to-do list. A realistic next move on the decision you've been stuck on, so you can breathe a little easier.

This is for you if...

❤You feel like you're barely keeping your head above water, with everything suddenly on your shoulders.
❤You keep asking everyone what they think, and you're still terrified you'll get it wrong.
❤Everyone from your mother to your in-laws seems to know how you should live now.
❤You feel guilty any time you do something just for you.
❤You want to know you can miss your spouse terribly and still build a life you genuinely want to live.

Hi, I'm Leslie.

I'm a certified life and grief coach, and my writing on grief and parenting has appeared in Time Magazine, Scary Mommy, Her View From Home and TAPS. My approach is trauma-informed, personal, and always gentle.

You don't have to figure it all out tonight.

Every week you stay stuck, the decision doesn't go away. It just gets louder at 2 a.m., and the opinions around you get louder too.

Come to What To Do When You Don't Know What To Do, my free live workshop, and start finding your way back to the woman who trusts her own gut.
