But What Should I Say?
A Guide for Professional & Personal Grief-Support
Do you worry about saying the wrong thing to the grieving people in your life? I get it. Grief is uncomfortable. And none of us have been taught what it’s actually like or what grieving people actually need. As a grief support person, you likely don't want to make things worse. The last thing you want is to cause even more pain. Here are some simple tips for what to say and how to offer grief-literate support.

A step-by-step guide to help you connect to your person on the other side
I created this guide because one of the most common questions I get asked, is how I have maintained my connection to my husband Brian since his death in 2019.

And yes, I also share the names of the mediums I have spoken to Brian through.

My 5 Favourite Nervous System Regulating Tools
The nervous system governs so much of how we feel, behave, and respond after profound loss. When we go through something traumatic, it is "too much, too fast, too soon" for our nervous system to process. Over time, we may find ourselves "stuck" in patterns of activation and eventually may feel chronically dysregulated. There are five nervous system tools in particular that I use regularly & love - and I want to share them with all of you, because they've helped me on my grief journey so much!

Evening Somatic Practice
After a profound loss, evenings can become so challenging for so many of us. Our already limited energy may become depleted, and as the world quiets around us, our grief, anxiety, or stress may become louder.
At a time when we crave rest more than ever, it may feel elusive and almost impossible to quiet our minds.
I created this simple, 18-minute somatic evening practice for those of us who are grieving. All you need to do, is follow along. May it support you in communicating to your nervous system that you are safe.

The Top Five Grief Myths
We live in a society where grief myths abound. I know because I used to believe many of them. I was completely unaware of the reality of grief, which means I was wholly unprepared for what it was really like. It also means that everyone around me was too. Grief is hard enough as it is, let’s shift the narrative by starting to break down these widely believed misunderstandings.
This resource is helpful for both grievers and grief support people alike.
