More scheduled webinars will be coming soon.
The death of a loved one is life-changing and can have a profound impact on our lives in many ways, including our sense of hope and purpose. In this webinar, we will explore the concepts of hope and purpose, as well as personal strategies that can nurture these experiences in our lives, even during the most challenging times. We will discuss factors that affect our sense of purpose and consider the components of hope that have an impact on our personal outlook while grieving.
Presented by: Andy McNiel, CEO The Compassionate Friends
Our society, in general, has adopted many constructs for understanding grief that do not adequately reflect the experience of bereaved people. This often leads individuals living with the death of a loved one to retreat from others, internalize their grief, and/or feel as though they are not grieving in the right way. Join us for this webinar as we challenge societal myths about what is “normal” grieving and healthy coping. This presentation will offer a “language” that more accurately defines how grief manifests in our lives and ideas for how we might carry and cope with the devastating, life-altering experience of profound loss.

The holiday season can intensify grief, highlighting what – and who – is missing. In this compassionate and practical session, we will explore why grief often feels different during the holidays and how to navigate the secondary losses that surface this time of year. Participants will learn how to create a personalized plan for coping, approach traditions with intention, and find meaningful ways to honor both loved ones and themselves throughout the season.
