About

If you’re grieving, chances are that you’ve had one of these gems hurled at you: “They’re in a better place,” “At least she’s not suffering anymore,” “It was his time.” Sure, people might mean well when they make these statements, but they simply do not help. Instead, they leave us feeling even more isolated and misunderstood. Our grief-averse culture wants a “quick-fix” and for people to go back to how they were before a loss. Grief is treated like a problem to be solved, when in fact, it’s a natural response to loss.
