there is a book that will help widows in a unique, compassionate and
contemporary way. Encouraging a smile while tackling tough subjects
and providing necessary support and education, this book will be
invaluable to those so badly in need".
Lee Woodruff, Contributor, CBS News' "CBS This Morning";
New York Times #1 bestselling author.
"Learning to live happily after the experience of devastating loss
is among the most important lessons that can ever be taught. Carole
Brody Fleet not only teaches these lessons, she dares to answer the
questions that many are afraid to ask; wrapped in warmth and hope
for a brighter future". ---
Marci Shimoff, New York
Times #1 bestselling co-author, "Chicken Soup for the Woman's
Soul" and "Love for No Reason"; featured teacher in
"The Secret"; host of "Happy for No Reason" (PBS)
"It's all in here - the emotions, the financial details, the
scream you want to scream and the hand you want to hold; all served
up with the kindness and humor that can make a gal feel a lot less
alone"
Lenore Skenazy, syndicated columnist and author, "Free-Range
Kids..."
"Chock full of personal questions and powerful answers, "Happily
EVEN After" is full of compassionate and heart healing advice. With
a wisdom garnered from experience, Carole Brody Fleet's comforting,
hand-held approach will help you move through the anguish of being
"half" and into the life-inspiring solace of feeling whole again." Lori Bryant-Woolridge, author, "The
Power of Wow: A Guide to Unleashing the Confident, Sexy You"
"Yes, even after the loss of a
beloved, when all seems bleak and hopeless, it is possible to find
your way out of despair. Filled with compassionate understanding,
practical guidance and honest reassurance that a meaningful life
awaits, "Happily Even After" is a worthy companion for your
journey."
Judy Ford, author, "Every Day Love: The Delicate Art of Caring
for Each Other"
"Having lost my wife when she was 34, I know how devastating loss
can be. Carole Brody Fleet does too. But she also knows the
importance of living a fulfilling life after a loss. With comforting
and easy-to-digest answers to many difficult post-grief questions,
"Happily EVEN After" provides comforting must-have advice for anyone
dealing with the changes and challenges of losing a loved one."
Allen Klein, author, "Change Your Life!: A Little Book of Big
Ideas"
"I like this book
because it has spunk and because it is practical and not preachy.
Carole Brody Fleet's offers lists of things that can wait for awhile
and of things that CAN'T wait can be put to immediate use. Her suggestions for establishing a routine are healthy. And
since emotions do not go away, it is important not to skip any steps
in healing. I also like the author's assurances that everyone is
unique; that you are in charge; and if you can't find it, create it.
Carole's idea about celebrating Valentine's Day shows the sort of
creativity that she encourages. 'Happily Even
After...' offers a strong list of referrals and itself is a powerful
guide to navigating a tough course."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Is
the CD a book-on-audio?
No. The CD is completely independent of the books and addresses
additional issues. .
What
makes this CD different from all the other grief CD's?
"Widows Wear Stilettos: What Now?"
looks at grief from a completely different perspective. Rather than
simply talk about grief (which doesn't do much to help the healing
process), the CD does several different things:
a. Rather than just deal with loss in a general way, the CD
examines the emotions of the widowed, based on
individual circumstances surrounding the loss (hint: Not all
widowhood is the same!);
b. Examines the feelings of guilt, anger, despair...and how to
overcome them all;
c. Takes a close look at how to handle people and their opinions.
d. Gives solid, practical financial advice;
e. Teaches how to grieve while helping children as well.
f. Helps both the newer widow as well as those who have been
widowed for a
longer
period of time.
g. Examines the difference between proactive and reactive coping and
how you
can TAKE CONTROL of your life;
...and that's just for starters!
Can
I get my CD autographed by Carole before it's shipped?
Because of the need to protect the CD in the shipping process, our
strict shipping and refund policies as well as the volume of orders
received, CD's cannot be autographed prior to shipping. However,
Carole does autograph CD's that are either purchased at personal
appearances and speaking engagements (when the purchaser can remove
the overwrap) OR has been previously purchased and is brought along
by the owner for an autograph.
What
if I want to buy a CD and I don't want to use a credit card?
Widows Wear Stilettos
accepts mail orders (check, cashier's check or money order) and our
mailing address is listed above. If you are paying by
personal check, your CD will be shipped as soon as your check has
cleared. DON'T FORGET TO INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS WITH YOUR
MAIL ORDER
Do
you ship internationally?
Yes, we ship to anywhere in the world. Widowhood has no geographic
boundaries and neither do we.
