How to Join (The 3-Step Process)

We want to ensure every participant feels comfortable and informed before a session begins.

2. Complete Connection Call: All interested participants must schedule a FREE 10-15 minute phone call. This space allows you to discuss the workshop topic, ask direct questions, and confirm your paid rate for the workshop you wish to attend.

Community-Pay Pricing & Philosophy

We believe that support during grief should be accessible, regardless of financial circumstances. To live out this value, The Grief Sessions utilizes a Community-Pay Model.

This tiered-system allows us to offer a range of price points for each workshop. We invite you to choose the tier that best reflects your current financial reality. By choosing a higher tier, you directly “pay it forward,” creating space for fellow grievers to access these sessions at a lower cost.

• Community: $50– This is the general admission option. Ideally, for folks who are currently experiencing financial hardship, students, or those with limited flexible income.

• Community Sustainer: $75–For folks comfortably able to meet their basic needs who wish to cover the actual cost of their own attendance.

• Community Supporter: $100 or more. For folks with stable housing, disposable income, and the desire to subsidize a partial spot for another community member. This ticket tier helps to subsidize (1) FREE spot at one of our upcoming grief workshops.

Refund policy: By signing up for the workshop you agree to give Kelsey seven (7) days' notice via email ([email protected]) if you need to cancel; otherwise, you will forfeit your ticket fee for this event/workshop. This workshop requires 5+ people to run. If attendance is too low, AMP will issue a refund via the original payment method within 7-10 days of the scheduled workshop date.
