Lisa Woolery

After two decades as a public relations executive, Lisa was thrown into widowing without warning. Not ashamed of her many “hot messes,” she shares the challenges of rebuilding life after the desolation of losing her husband.
Lisa writes with grit, humor, and raw honesty so other widows know they don’t have to be perfect in the face of grief. In The Widow’s Comeback, she dives into money, abandonment, parenting tweens, dating, self-forgiveness, and faith—offering companionship and hope for the road ahead.
She lives in Kansas City, loving on her two teenagers while chasing after her three rapscallion dogs. For fun, she travels the world, plays pickleball, and reads in her cheetah-print recliner.
The Widow’s Comeback memoir and its companions 365-Day Grieving Calendar and Grief Journal are her first books. Lisa is currently working on her first Widow’s Comeback fiction. Stay tuned for a trilogy about how three widows who lose their husbands in a plane crash walk through their grief journey. You will laugh, cry, and relate.
