A few weeks ago, I had the honor and privilege of attending a developer networking conference with my husband in Porto, Portugal.

I met some of the most amazing, inspiring people while I was there.

One of them, senior technical community architect for the Linux Foundation, Casey Cain, has been through it all. After he shared his story with me, I insisted on an interview. If anyone understands loss, it’s this guy. The wisdom he’s gleaned from the grief he’s experienced is worth the watch.

Despite losing so much, he refused to let it overpower him. He embraced the 5 stages of grief by walking through it, but he didn't let it crush him. He knew that he still had a purpose in this life and he was determined to live that purpose.                    

I won't spoil it, so watch it for yourself by clicking the link below! And let me know if you share a similar experience as Casey.

Have you gone through grief? Or are you currently going through it? I’d love to hear from you. And I want you to know you are not alone.
