Life is messy and rarely turns out the way we desire. This workshop will provide step-by-step guidance to heal your broken heart so you can be happy again!

Here's what you will learn from this program:

• How to honor your loved one while still leading a happy and joyous life

• Understanding that pain and sadness don't have to be a new normal for you

• Overcoming feelings of guilt, shame, and regret

• Learning to let go of painful memories and emotions to make space for happy and joyous ones

• Discovering the freedom of knowing that you don't have to spend your life in pain

• Becoming the person you are meant to be without being held back by the trauma and grief of your past

• Regaining your lost quality of life.

1. Our team of Grief Recovery Experts are dedicated to helping the world recover from tragic loss and overcome grief. This isn’t a regular support group. Traditional support groups are usually ongoing, which only keeps you stuck in your pain. The Workshop has an end and specific, proven directions for you to follow to heal your heart.
2. It is NOT Group Therapy
3. Traditional support groups encourage grievers to talk about their pain but don’t always offer a path to recovery. You will be guided step-by-step to take actions that are proven to heal your heart.
4. Grief is a normal and natural emotional reaction to loss, but most of the solutions people are taught are intellectual. You’ll be guided from your head to your heart, which will improve the quality of your life.
5. Loss is our Only Topic

If you’re like most people you relate grief to death, but here are over 40 types of loss people can experience in their lifetime! We focus on helping you with any loss and don’t muddy it down by getting involved with other topics. We do one thing well and that’s help people with broken hearts.
