Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your Spouse

Widow Goals: Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your Spouse is a tender, faith-filled guide for anyone who feels lost after losing the person they loved most. If you're wondering how to breathe again, how to move forward when your world has fallen apart, this book was written for you.

After losing her husband of 17 years, Michelle Bader Ebersole walked through the heartbreak, loneliness, and overwhelming questions that grief brings. Through the deepest valley, she discovered a powerful truth: God had not abandoned her—and He hasn’t abandoned you either.

In Widow Goals, Michelle shares thirty heartfelt steps rooted in Scripture, personal experience, and real hope. Each chapter is an invitation to take a small step forward—even on the days when healing feels impossible.

Inside, you’ll find answers to questions like:

• Is there any hope left for me after this loss?
• How do I survive the anxiety, loneliness, and heartbreak?
• Can I grieve honestly without losing my faith?
• What do I do with the overwhelming pain on holidays and anniversaries?
• How do I rebuild my life when everything feels broken?

You didn’t choose this story—but you are not walking it alone.

You are still chosen. You are still loved. You are still held in the hands of a faithful God.

No matter where you are on your journey, there is a future filled with peace, purpose, and unexpected joy waiting for you.

Take your first step toward healing today.
