Guilt-Free Grieving

8 Weeks

·

Cohort-based Course

Reclaim your right to grieve with care, intention, and hope for the future.

Course overview

Are you grieving but tired of justifying your needs?

Your very valid needs deserve to be met.


Because grief sucks, we need a lot more than we realize to navigate the daily fluctuations of pain in our whole selves - heart, mind, body, and spirit.


While nothing will ever fully remove the pain, we can learn to integrate intentionally what serves our healing and meets the immediate and long-term needs of our grief...WITHOUT continuing to feel like we're taking up too much space, energy, or resources from others.

This course is for you if...

01

You're struggling to establish consistency in self-care and meeting your needs.

02

You are desperate to protect your key relationships with others & yourself.

03

You are done apologizing & ready to trust yourself through the grieving process.

What you'll learn with Guilt-Free Grieving

Learn to better recognize your needs as they arise

Grievers are afraid of making life harder for ourselves or others, so we keep our needs quiet and suffer in silence - or we feel like we've overshared and apologize to take up less space. You will learn to establish needed boundaries with compassion - not apologies.

Develop your own go-to strategies for handing immediate needs

Grievers are used to reacting quickly for self-preservation but fail to establish helpful habits for long-term healing. This course will help you fill your toolbox with meaningful techniques instead of quick fixes.

Develop healthy ways to protect your relationships

We will explore the value of internal boundaries, begin to recognize ingrained patterns of safety behaviors, and establish a meaningful way of addressing our own needs without relying solely on the state of our external world.

Build healthy connections with other grievers like you

Grief is too isolating and when we feel like a burden, we stop sharing our stories. You will be joining other grievers who understand the exhaustion, numbness, and fear to learn about the value of your story and gain the tools needed to support your nervous system to heal.

Certified Grief Educator & Somatic Practitioner; Author of Restorative Grief

Hi! I'm Mandy. I don't remember a year of my life that doesn't include grief of some kind. Whether it was a death, a move, a divorce, or a community tragedy, I grew up with a tough exterior to keep myself as safe as possible.


Then after years of fertility struggles and miscarriages, I lost my mom to cancer in 2016.


I spent the next four years allowing myself to grieve with intention - but it wasn't pretty. It looked completely different than I expected and radically changed the way I understood loss, my faith, and myself.


When the pandemic arrived in 2020, I was uniquely positioned to care for others just like me: those suddenly grieving without a sense of direction or safety.


The Restorative Grief model is an integrative whole person approach to healing work, incorporating concepts and support tools from mindfulness, yoga, various psychological models, and neuropsychology research into the grief support process.


Each of my clients is uniquely supported to discover a new and personally meaningful pathway to healing for themselves in their whole selves – mind, heart, body, and spirit.


Between online courses, free online coaching groups, my weekly podcast, and one-on-one grief support, my hope is to bring grief literacy and a new understanding of meaningful grief support.
