Widowed AF: Real stories of love, grief and beyond - With Rosie Gill-Moss

In 2018, Rosie Gill-Moss’s life changed forever. Her husband, Ben, died suddenly in a scuba diving accident, leaving her widowed at 37 with three young children. Overnight, she found herself in a world that seemed to have no roadmaps for the reality she faced. Conversations about grief felt shallow or filled with empty platitudes, and practical guidance was hard to find.

Rosie created Widowed AF because she knew others were out there, feeling just as lost and alone. She wanted a place where people could talk openly about grief, share their experiences, and find support without judgment or sugar-coating. What started as a way to process her own loss has grown into a global community, providing honest conversations about what it really means to lose someone you love.

Each episode of Widowed AF focuses on real-life stories, bringing in guests who share their unvarnished experiences with grief and loss. Topics include the practical side of widowhood—managing finances, raising grieving children, or navigating a new identity—as well as the deeply personal challenges of coping with anger, loneliness, and even the unexpected moments of joy. Rosie also invites professionals, advocates, and others who offer useful perspectives for listeners trying to rebuild their lives.

At its core, the podcast exists to show that while grief is deeply personal, it’s also a shared experience. Widowed AF isn’t about offering easy answers—it’s about helping people feel less alone and providing tools and stories that might help them along the way.
