Leslie Harter Berg, known for her Vids for Wids, joins Widow We Do Now to talk about the loss of her husband, Ryan, who died from arteriovenous malformations, and what life has looked like in the years since. She shares the reality of early grief, what it meant to rebuild, and how her path eventually led to remarriage — something that can feel complicated, unexpected, and even conflicting in widowhood.

Leslie brings humor into the conversation without forcing it, offering a perspective that feels both grounded and honest. She also talks about creating content specifically for widows, writing her book You’re So Strong, and the experience of being told that phrase when everything feels anything but.

Get your copy of Leslie's book, You're So Strong: On Grief And Letting Go Of My Favorite Compliment on Amazon or anywhere books are sold.
