It's becoming more and more common, to hear women advocate for widow support, and speak about the pain of widowhood; losing the father of her children, navigating womanhood after "ever after" and hurdling the social obstacles that come with the territory....
...BUT WHAT ABOUT THE MEN?
What toxic stereotypes about grief and manhood, solo fatherhood, or rumors around re-marriage are they battling, and how are they managing in their own mental health journeys? What support and advocacy needs do they have that may be different from those of widowed women, and how can we do better, especially in areas society overlooks?
Four widowed, extraordinary men answer those questions candidly, honestly, and in some ways, surprisingly!
