In this powerful episode of A Widow’s Heart, host Pam Lundell talks with Dr. Kimberly Hubenette—a skilled cosmetic dentist, author, and widow—about love, resilience, and the will to keep going after unimaginable loss. Kimberly shares her extraordinary love story with her late husband Mark, a double lung transplant survivor and devoted search-and-rescue volunteer. Together, they embraced an adventurous, survivalist lifestyle that prepared Kimberly in surprising ways for the day she would need to live, love, survive, and thrive without him.

Discover how Mark’s legacy inspired Kimberly’s unique novel Grid: Once in a Lifetime You Get to Start Over—a wilderness survival story mirroring her own emotional and spiritual journey. She opens up about grief, the comfort of “God winks,” the healing power of nature, and the importance of building community. You’ll also hear practical survival tips, from preparing a “bug-out” bag to caring for pets in emergencies, and learn about Kimberly’s retreats that help widows rediscover life’s beauty.

If you’ve faced loss—or simply want an inspiring story of courage and hope—this conversation will encourage you to believe that you can survive, heal, and begin again.
