Grief, Bereavement and Compassion at Work
This blog offers practical guidance, personal reflections and honest conversations about grief, bereavement and compassionate workplaces.
Drawing on lived experience and my professional work, I explore how we can support people through loss, communicate with greater confidence, and create workplaces where grief is acknowledged rather than avoided.
You’ll also find posts on workplace bereavement, suicide postvention, communication after loss, and practical resources for managers and organisations.
National Grief Awareness Week: Why Talking About Grief Matters
Grief affects us all, yet it’s often left unspoken—especially in the workplace. This National Grief Awareness Week, learn why starting the conversation about grief is key to fostering compassion and understanding in our professional environments.
Shining a Light in the Darkness: Launching the Grief Awareness Series
Today marks a significant moment in my journey as I officially launch the Grief Awareness Series for Workplaces. Born from personal experience and a deep passion for change, this series is about transforming workplaces into compassionate spaces where grief is understood and supported. Through this work, I hope to shine a light in the dark spaces and help others navigate the waves of loss with empathy and resilience.
