Read what workshop attendees, clients and professionals have to say about Julie and her approach to life after loss.
“Thank you, Julie Martella, for your advice and wisdom during your workshop at Tampa Camp Widow. For the past 6+ months, I have been unable to clean my wife’s purse even though it sat right in front of me in my office that entire time. Every time I would start, I would quickly stop and say, “Nope, not today.”
Today, I took your advice and the support that you and our small groups gave me and I put it into action. While it was stressful and I was full of anxiety, I am now feeling really glad that I did it. Baby steps, but I am moving forward with a plan thanks to you.” – J.
