Her writing emerges from lived experience-most profoundly as mother to her late son, Ben-whose short, tender, and musically enriched life continues to guide her purpose. Through the Benjamin Goldberg Foundation, Wendy advocates for mainstream access to the healing arts, bridging clinical care with human connection. As host of The BGF Podcast, she engages guests in conversations about grief, meaning, and what endures through story and art. An entrepreneur by instinct, Wendy developed a \"numbers-as-narrative\" sensibility that informs both her business leadership and her writing. She serves as president of W.C. Goldberg and Co., a CPA and consulting firm based in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Across her work-on the page, in conversation, and in the community-Wendy is devoted to translating loss into connection and love into movement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Wendy Goldberg \/ Paperback \/ English","offer_id":49001603793053,"sku":"9798897472673","price":25.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_febcfabb-af61-4d3b-a703-4e2be933ce56.jpg?v=1791981733","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/moms-book-it-was-never-about-the-grief-9798897472673","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
