It began with people asking for advice on how to best support others facing unimaginable loss. Then, we started meeting directly with bereaved people to offer encouragement. Our tragedy had created an ability for us to show up in messy moments with people and have healing conversations. Our biggest limitation has been our bandwidth. We can’t take every hurting person to dinner. This is what drove us to create resources that could be shared more broadly.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”82″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”83″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”84″ ][cs_element_image _id=”85″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”86″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”87″ ][cs_content_seo]Unraveled\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_line _id=”88″ ][cs_element_headline _id=”89″ ][cs_content_seo]When Loss Changes Everything\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_text _id=”90″ ][cs_content_seo]When tragedy strikes, it often leaves people speechless. Nothing can really “fix” what is wrong, and words can feel like salt in an open wound. If you have found yourself in one of these situations, we want to help. Although it is true that there is no perfect thing to say, connecting with others who have been down a similar path and emerged with hope is a great starting place. That’s why we wrote the book, Unraveled: When Loss Changes Everything.
Our desire was to help fill the gap for when people don’t know what to say by creating a resource that would have been helpful to us in the wake of our loss. After reflecting on our journey, we gathered all our thoughts and considered what we would say if we were going to walk our very best friend through an unimaginable tragedy. The book is a heartfelt narrative that can be read in under two hours. Whether you have personally experienced a loss, or are supporting someone else, we hope you find it as a helpful resource.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][cs_element_button _id=”91″ ][cs_content_seo]Get The Book\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_element_layout_column][cs_element_layout_column _id=”92″ ][cs_element_image _id=”93″ ][/cs_element_layout_column][/cs_element_layout_row][/cs_element_section][cs_element_section _id=”94″ ][cs_element_layout_row _id=”95″ ][cs_element_layout_column _id=”96″ ][cs_element_image _id=”97″ ][cs_element_text _id=”98″ ][cs_content_seo]”This book provides realistic advice and tips on how to navigate your grief. While it was written by parents who lost a child, it is completely applicable to all those who grieve. As one who recently lost a parent unexpectedly, this book was like a walk with a friend who has been there and has all the right things to say.”
