  • Improving Communication: When No One Understands

    Zoom Cornelius, NC

    Have you ever left a conversation thinking, “They just don’t get it.” Grief can make everyday conversations feel exhausting. From “How are you?” to “You should be over it by now,” navigating communication after loss can feel overwhelming — especially when people misunderstand your grief. If you’re grieving and struggling with relationships, boundaries, or what to say when others say the wrong thing, this free online grief support event is for you. Event Details Thursday, April 23, 2026 4:00–5:00 PM EST Online via Zoom Free registration required at: https://bit.ly/4tULgoh

    Grief Beyond Graves: Queer Mourning & Collective Healing

    Zoom Cornelius, NC

    Less Fear | More Fierce: Queer End-of-Life Planning LGBTQ+ Centric Online Discussion Series 2nd Wednesdays | 1-2:30 pm ET | | January - June 2026 What would collective healing look like if we made space for every kind of queer loss—not just the ones with headstones? Grief isn't only about death. Queer and trans people often carry grief from non-death losses—family estrangement, identity erasure, loss of community, housing, or health. This session explores disenfranchised grief and collective mourning, offering space to name, witness, and begin to heal these often-invisible losses. We'll also touch on grief in response to social and […]

  • “It’s Complicated” Support Group

    “It’s Complicated” Support Group
    Virtual Event

    A monthly peer-led Zoom group for people who had a strained relationship with someone who’s died. It can be tough to be in a group with other folks who were close with their parent, sibling, grandparent, partner, co-parent, friend, etc. As much as I like for there to be a range of experiences represented in grief groups, so that we can hear diverse perspectives, sometimes it is nice to be with people who “get it.” When addiction, mental health challenges, conflict, estrangement, abuse, etc. were a part of the picture, it can affect the grief journey in unique ways. This […]

    Childfree By Choice & Grieving

    “It’s Complicated” – Support Group
    Virtual Event

    It’s not a given that everyone who is childfree by choice is 100%, unabashedly content with the decision. While we may be set in our choice, there can still be grief there. I know there is for me. It’s a both-and/two truths situation. Many of us make this choice for a lot of unfortunate, depressing, and/or systemic reasons, and I created this space where we can be with our truths, and hurts, around it all. Our monthly peer-led Zoom group is intended to be a space for people who have chosen not to have children. It is not intended to […]
