A FREE GUIDE FOR PARENTS AFTER SUICIDE LOSS

Love Beyond Goodbye: 7 Gentle Steps

A gentle companion for parents whose child died by suicide. Take the next step in front of you, at your own pace.

This is not a guide about getting over your child or moving on. It is a gentle companion for the next step in front of you. Some days that step may be drinking water, canceling a plan, or saying your child's name. You do not have to have grief figured out to read this. Read one page at a time, or set it down and come back. Every reflection is optional, and there is nothing to send back. After you sign up, please add [email protected] to your contacts so your guide reaches you. It may land in your spam, promotions, or trash folder at first.

What's inside:

  • Step 1 · Pause: Let Today Be Enough

  • Step 2 · Process: Name What You Are Carrying

  • Step 3 · Permission: Let Grief Be Yours

  • Step 4 · Protect (companion step): Guard Your Energy and Boundaries

  • Step 5 · Preserve: Keep Love and Connection Present

  • Step 6 · Purpose: Allow Meaning Without Explaining the Death

  • Step 7 · Proceed: Move Forward Without Leaving Them Behind

  • Simple words for protecting your energy, like "I am not ready to talk about that."
