  • “It’s Complicated” – Support Group

    Childfree By Choice & Grieving

    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 […]

  • The Good Death Book Club Experience FREE 12-Month Death and Dying Course

    According to a recent AARP study, there are over 52 million caregivers in the United States right now—and 70% of them say they are overwhelmed.

Let’s make sure yours is one filled with support, empowerment, and peace. That’s why I created The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience: Death and Dying Course—a […]

  • “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 […]
