6-part Series with Rebecca Soffer
How to Best Support and Talk with People Who are Grieving
A Conversation with Author, Rebecca Soffer
In this engaging six-part video series, Rebecca candidly speaks from experience about what to say and what NOT to say to a friend, co-worker or loved one who has experienced a loss — recently or in the past. She explains how grief does not go away, rather it evolves, and provides practical advice for supporting those who are grieving, at all different stages in their journeys.
Rebecca Soffer is the author of two books including her most recent bestseller, The Modern Loss Handbook: An Interactive Guide to Moving Through Grief and Building Your Resilience. Rebecca is also the co-founder of the modernloss.com community.
