My guest today is Donna Kendrick. Donna is a certified financial planner, certified divorce financial analyst and founder of Septon Financial.  An important part of widowhood is figuring out our finances. How do we know what we can afford? How long will our savings take us? How can we even plan when we don't know what we are going to need?

Ep. 31 - Personal Thoughts

If you're like me, which you probably are if you've tuned into a podcast with widow in the title... then you've experienced profound loss... and might even be feeling lost yourself.

You're not alone.  My name is Joelle Eckstein, and I am the widow of Rabbi Yechiel Eckstein of blessed memory, who unexpectedly passed away in 2019.  He was a rabbi, singer, speaker, and was loved the world over for his ability to unite people...  I was left completely lost, scared, and I would have to learn to live a life without him...  

But I'm here today to tell you that one step at a time, you can rebuild a new you.  Each week on my podcast, I'll visit with other women who are also on a journey of rediscovery, as well as wonderful experts and professionals who can light the way.  We'll cover everything from getting up in the morning, to finding your purpose, and creating a new role for yourself.  I am The Rabbi's Widow - my goal is to build an empowered global community of widows who help each other.
