At a Loss: How to Talk to a Grieving Friend

Description

When someone you care about is grieving, you may have no idea what to say or do. What if I say the wrong thing? What if my words ring hollow? What can I do to help them? What can I say besides “I’m sorry?”

In this session, local mortician Angela Woosley will walk you through simple ways you can show your love and support, listen, validate their feelings, and offer tangible help to your grieving friends. From simple ideas about what to say—and what not to say—to deeper ways to practice empathy in your daily life, this session will give you the words and courage to reach out to a friend who’s hurting.
