Telling Your Story: The Healing Power of Sharing Loss (webinar)

This free webinar is among a series of trainings designed to increase understanding of the grieving process, develop skills to support grieving individuals and colleagues, improve communication, foster resilience, and help people find new meaning after a death. These webinars provide knowledge about how to offer emotional and practical support, navigate awkward conversations, and care for oneself and others during times of bereavement.

Every loss creates a story. Sometimes that story is shared openly, and sometimes it remains unspoken. Telling the story of a loss can help individuals process emotions, make sense of their experience, preserve memories, and feel less alone. This webinar explores the healing power of storytelling in grief. Participants will learn why sharing their experiences matters, how stories help us navigate loss, and ways to honor their story at their own pace and comfort level.

By the end of this webinar, participants will:
• Understand why storytelling can support the grieving process.
• Recognize the connection between storytelling and healing.
• Explore ways to share their loss experience safely.
• Identify meaningful memories and lessons from their loved one.
• Develop confidence in expressing their grief journey.
