Butterflies + Halos was created by Angie Hanson.  Angie lost her 1-year-old son Garret in 2006 due to a rare heart defect. She then became a widow in February 2009 after her husband Jack’s short battle with ocular melanoma, and she then became a grieving sibling in April 2009 after her brother Seth’s battle with a 5-year brain tumor ended. Angie also sadly had to say goodbye to her sister-in-law, Brooke (her 1st husband’s sister), in June 2018.  Angie has always struggled with finding the right sympathy card or Grief card at the stores for her friends and family. Cards have always been so generic and not something she would say to her best friend after a death. Butterflies + Halos is a company that will help you grieve with your friend instead of trying to “fix” your friend. I think I finally found a card that “speaks hope into the grieving heart.

Cindy Burns Life Coach for the Widowed

Exactly one month before our 33rd wedding anniversary, my husband Daniel lost his short battle with lung cancer. Together, we raised six wonderful sons. His death marked the end of an era. The part of me that was a part of him was gone, and I didn't know who I was. After a long, hard struggle, I pulled myself out of that dark pit and determined that I wasn't going to let other widows go through the same hell if I could help it. I became a life coach for the widowed and a grief doula.

I realized that I wasn't the only one who had come out on the other side of grief, and there were a lot of people who had stories of making something good come from their grief. I started a podcast to highlight those individuals and let the world know that life does go on and, if we let it, the new life can be pretty darn good.
