Nancy Sharp experienced an exceptional grief when her husband died from brain cancer at the age of 39, when their twins were toddlers. She eventually left New York City for Denver to start over amid the mountain air. She left a public relations career and became a Guided Autobiography instructor, as well as the author of the bestselling memoir, Both Sides Now: A True Story of Love, Loss, and Bold Living. Her writing and her work inspire resilience.
In the latest episode of the
Make Meaning Podcast, Nancy speaks with host Lynne Golodner about her writing process, her passion for
teaching Guided Autobiography, how life and death can collide, and
her daily practices for building a life of meaning. She says, “In
order to be resilient, you have to move beyond the things that hold
you back. You have to be able to transcend challenges and sometimes
that means re-writing your story or a part of your
story.”
