Beau Williams: Transforming Grief Into Purpose
|
Hi Reader, I just released a truly moving episode of The Addicted Mind podcast that I think you'll connect with deeply. This week, I had the privilege of speaking with Beau Williams, author of One Year With My Soulmate. Beau shares his powerful and emotional story of navigating life after the heartbreaking loss of his partner, Melanie. From her struggles with unresolved trauma and dependency to his own transformative healing process in Bali, Beau opens up in a way that will resonate with anyone familiar with grief, loss, or hope.
