Dr. Lynn Banis

A few years ago, my life took a turn that I never saw coming. Within three short years, I lost my mom, my little brother, and my husband. It felt like the world around me went dark. Grief hit me hard, and with it came a deep sense of loneliness that I struggled to shake. But through my journey, I realized something powerful: I wasn’t alone in this. Many other women were going through similar struggles.

With a PhD in human behavior and decades of experience in coaching, I knew I had the tools to help others. That’s why I created Widows Rising Together—to help widows like you overcome loneliness and rediscover joy and purpose in life.
