How Listening to Grief started offering grief walks and other workshops.

A post to thank all the friends I’ve made in West Seattle.

What does “listening to grief” mean? How do you listen to grief?

Two years ago, I had an idea to create a Grief Walk for National Grief Awareness Day along with the one-on-one grief coaching already on offer. From there, Listening to Grief expanded to include peer support groups, Heart Tending Grief & Yoga workshops, and grief circles for all kinds of grief. More programs are on the way.

What makes me unique?

I am a folklorist. 

I am also a griever.

I am infinitely curious about what makes a person who they are, and I love hearing stories about people.
