I'm Sandi Amorello. I've been a widow since 2002, the mother of three children since 1998...and a Girl Scout dropout since 1971.

Losing my husband Drew to pancreatic cancer propelled me headfirst on an unexpected journey into grief, single parenting, and perhaps most tragic of all...midlife courtship. I'm a reluctant expert on love, death and dating. I can show you how to navigate change and loss with humor and creativity…and how to use memories as a way to celebrate your life. Being widowed has not been fun.  It has, however, been quite funny at times.  "If I'm still laughing...you should be too!"

 

CATHARTIC ART. Because moving on can be messy.

Whether you’ve suffered a loss, gone through a major life crisis, broken up with your latest boyfriend, or are just feeling lost and need to rediscover what lights you up inside... a little cathartic art can go a long way.
