🎙️ SHOW NOTES Is a Reverse Mortgage Right for You? Special Guest: Margaret Anderson
Grief and financial decisions often intersect during life’s biggest transitions — retirement, loss of a spouse, caregiving, divorce, or unexpected change. In this powerful episode, host Cheryl Scheidell sits down with grief and loss specialist Margaret Anderson to explore how healing, stability, and hope can coexist — even after profound loss.
Margaret, a David Kessler–Certified Grief Educator, shares her deeply personal journey following the loss of her 23-year-old son, and how that experience led her to help others navigate both death and non-death losses with compassion, meaning, and renewed purpose.
Together, Cheryl and Margaret discuss how unresolved grief can quietly block joy, decision-making, and forward momentum — and how creating emotional and financial breathing room can be life-changing.
