Welcome, darling!
There are losses that dismantle an entire life.
When my husband died, I felt completely lost and alone. Like an anchor-less boat adrift at sea.
No one grasped the depth of my devastation. Yes, they saw the obvious loss. That he was gone. But what they didn’t see was that my entire life as I knew it, was gone too.
I ached for someone to show up on my doorstep and say,
“Here I am, darling. Let me support you as you navigate your loss. I know the person you want to lean on is gone. Lean on me for a while.
I will meet you in the darkness, and when you are ready to move forward (different than moving on), we will begin to gently chart a new path. Bringing all of your heart with you.
But also, there is no rush.“
This is a compassionate space for those living with grief — whether from the loss of a partner, a family member or friend, or a life once imagined.

“Grief is f*#ing hard. But you don’t have to grieve it alone.”
— me
I didn’t used to swear. Honest!
Whether you recently lost your person or it has been years since you last held their hand, grief — and rebuilding life after a profound loss — doesn’t have a timeline. And neither should you.
“Grief, I say, come in. Sit down.
I have tea. There is honey.
This will take as long as it takes.”
— this hallowed wilderness
