Sheryl Sandberg’s professional career is nothing short of legendary. In the early days at Google, she scaled ad sales from 4 to 4,000 people. Then she was handpicked by Mark Zuckerberg to become the COO at Facebook - a title she still holds. In 2013, Sheryl published her first book Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead which sparked a global movement empowering women to take their seat at the table, and she is regarded as one of top business leaders in the world when it comes to power, influence, and impact.
But as you can imagine, I didn’t ask Sheryl to come on the show to talk about her accomplishments. Any life worth meaning, filled with deep, rich experiences, of big love, will also likely not be spared of trauma, loss and grief. As you’ll hear, Sheryl’s story is no different after losing her husband Dave - suddenly and tragically - back in 2015. What’s unique is that she was willing to share her experience with the world with the hope that being open about grieving could also bring her life more meaning.
