In this moving episode, Jess Silva is joined by Rosie Moss, Widowed AF founder and mother of three whose life changed overnight when her husband Ben was tragically lost at sea whilst diving in 2018. His body was never recovered. Rosie speaks candidly about the heartbreak of her sudden loss, navigating through her traumatic grief, and the pressure of taking over her husband’s business while raising their three children alone. She shares how the experience shaped her resilience and why she now speaks out about financial planning, family security, and the realities of loss.
