Why Grief talk?
Over twenty-five years ago, my family unexpectedly lost a family member and once she passed away, she was rarely spoken of again.
I don't want any child to go through what her children experienced.
To address this, I created the GRIEF TALK CHALLENGE to help families stop avoiding and start talking about grief.
