Don't be afraid to address the "elephant in the room" this holiday season. My podcast guest, Kelsey, this week discusses the importance behind this act. We all hurt while grieving, especially when that grief is taking place during the holidays; we deserve to give ourselves and others the space to probably grieve; eliminating the expectation to pretend everything is okay. Kelsey will also briefly discuss:
Kelsey Pfleiderer is a writer from a small town in Ohio, now residing in the Florida Keys with her husband, rainbow baby boy, and
a feisty, orange neighborhood cat. After being diagnosed with a rare spinal tumor in 2017, and being met with the reality of the old
cliché of "life is short", she left her career in corporate events to pursue her deepest dream of writing. Kelsey is a contributing writer featured on Her View From Home, Pregnancy After Loss Support, The Mighty, Love What
Matters, and many more. She is currently in the process of finding a literary agent for her first book. She believes that by embracing our scars, both physical and emotional, we unfold the roadmap that leads us to the life we were created to live.
