Grief As a Survivor: A Space to Feel and Be Held

This class will be held LIVE online via Zoom — Zoom links are sent out 3 days prior and then again 1 hour prior to start time. To preserve the intimate nature of this class, it will NOT be recorded. Registration deadline: 1 hour prior to class Pacific time. No day-of cancellations.

Grief doesn’t always look like what we expect. This class explores the quieter, often unspoken grief that comes with being a survivor—grief from triggers, change, and holding so much for so long. We’ll talk about resilience, empathy vs. sympathy, and how to work with our experiences instead of against them. This space is for Survivors who need a pause, a reflection, and a real conversation around healing and support.

This course will be 60 min long with a 30 min open Q&A.
