    Shelley McKinley

    Shelley McKinley was married for twenty years before becoming a widow. Leaning on her gifts of writing, teaching, and facilitating groups, Shelley shares the experiential lessons gained since becoming a widow. She offers a glimpse into the emotional and day-to-day repercussions of widowhood to therapists, family members, and anyone else seeking to help a new widow in need. Shelley wrote From Wed to Widow to turn her pain into purpose and help other new widows move toward healing and acceptance. Shelley is the mother of two sons.
