Helping fellow widows rebuild their identity and reimagine their lifeafter loss.
Fun is sacred here.
Welcome to the club you never thought you’d be in.
Hi, I’m Pam Baker — professional multitasker, lifelong optimist, and widow who decided that healing shouldn’t happen in silence … or at least without good company and a glass of wine. After losing my husband Jon to glioblastoma, I realized widowhood came with way too much loneliness and far too little laughter. So I created Widows Who Wine™ as a joyful rebellion: a place where widows can show up messy, honest, and ready to toast to whatever comes next.
Today, what started as a simple “Hey, want to get a drink?” has grown into a community helping widows everywhere find friendship, courage, and moments of sparkle again. Because life doesn’t end with loss … sometimes it takes the best friends you never knew you needed to help navigate your new chapter.
Toast to what was, and boldly create what’s next.
While our widow journey will always stay with us, laughing through tears, clinking glasses through heartbreak, and finding light in the darkest of places will help you to boldly create the next, beautiful chapter of your life.
This isn’t about grief support.
Grief has its place, and it’s vital to the process. However, the heartbeat of my work intersects where widows want to transition from surviving — to thriving. Thriving is about bold reinvention, deep laughter, and rising through sisterhood.
Rise, rebuild, and live big again.
Widowhood does not have to be dark and depressing. When you’re ready, we honor the past by boldly stepping into what’s next. We’re not here to just get through it. We’re here to rise, rebuild, and live big again with unapologetic pride and purpose.
How I can help you rise again.
Social Group & Community: Widows Who Wine™
Widows Who Wine™ is a social group that offers a welcoming environment for women at various stages of widowhood to build friendships and engage in uplifting activities. It's not a grief group, but rather a community for those who have experienced grief and are now finding their way back to joy with the support of others on a similar path.

When they’re gone, will you know what to do? A guide to avoid probate pitfalls and protect your family.

Packed with checklists, real-world examples, and step-by-step strategies, this book is the support you need to prepare for death before a crisis forces you to.
My Podcast: The Lost Love Stories
The Lost Love Stories is a sacred space for the real, raw, and remarkable stories of love, especially the ones we don’t often tell. Here, we honor the beauty and complexity of relationships, not just through the lens of romance, but in all its forms: from spouses and friends to siblings and children.
Each episode captures the full spectrum of love—its tenderness, its trials, and even its annoyances—while giving voice to the truths that are often left unsaid after loss.
