ABOUT OUR AUTHORS
Karyl McKendry,
Paisley Project Founder
“Although I never considered myself a writer, I am committed to shedding light on the experience of grief and loss from its raw, ugly beginnings, all the way through to its redemptive moments. I talk about the science of grief and loss, about how coaching contributes to healing, about travel, food, nutrition, exercise, and what I’ve learned on my own journey.
Barbara Allen Burke,
Paisley Project Content Director
“My goal is to be able to come alongside widows with respect, support and whatever help I can offer. I try to do this by providing information and resources that might shed light or bring hope. As a writer and a mixed-media artist, I am particularly interested in the benefits of creativity for healing.
How I Learned to L.I.V.E.
In a world where grief is often a hush-hush topic, we vowed to change the narrative. . . . Our road was full of twists and turns, mixed with moments of trial and error. Looking back, I zig-zagged my way through the L.I.V.E. process, crafting my very own journey.
Wintering into the New Year
We don’t have to abide by the timelines of our culture. We can choose to respond to grief—and a New Year—in a way that feels the most supportive and meaningful for us. There isn’t anything magical about things happening on a certain date.
