The Heartwork Collective is the place to be supported in your grief + slowly feel like yourself again —
without guilt, pressure, or toxic positivity.
24/7 ACCESS · NO CONTRACTS · CANCEL ANYTIME
You don’t need another thing that feels heavy or overwhelming.
The Heartwork Collective isn’t something you “keep up with.”
It’s a space you can come back to when you have the capacity — and step away from when you don’t.
Watch a short video. Read a post that makes you feel less alone. Sit quietly + take a breath
Do nothing at all — and that’s still okay here.
There’s no “right” place to be.
But this is the general flow...
The Grieving Lounge.
Be understood, validated, + held - no fixing required.
Also learn a solid foundation about grief since there's so much misinformation out there.
The Heartwork Society
This is where healing tools gently help you lighten the emotional load.
The ReBeginning Room
For intentionally building a life that feels meaningful again.
I didn’t set out to work in grief.
I became a grief coach because I know what it’s like to wonder if you’ll ever feel okay again —
and to secretly wonder if you even want to.
When Eric died, I didn’t just lose my husband.
I lost my future. My identity. The version of me that lived that life.
I learned how to function.
But behind closed doors, I was a fucking mess.
What I wanted wasn’t to “move on.”
I just wanted to feel lighter. To breathe again. To feel alive — without betraying him.
The tools that helped me do that are the same ones inside The Heartwork Collective.
Not rushed. Not forced.
And not reserved only for people who can afford private coaching.
24/7 ACCESS at your fingertips
STEP-BY-STEP CURRICULUM you move through at your own pace
WEEKLY OPTIONAL LIVE CALLS (come or don’t)
MONTHLY WORKSHOPS for deeper reflection
A PRIVATE COMMUNITY (not on Facebook — your welcome)
AN EVER-GROWING LIBRARY of grief support tools
The Heartwork Collective was designed to be the most affordable way to work with me —
the same tools I use in private sessions, just without the 1:1 intensity.
"I decided to begin the Heartwork process about five months after Craig passed away for one main reason: to be present and supportive for my boys, who were still teenagers at the time.
I’ll always remember being in the backyard with my boys when I shared that I had completed the Heartwork. My son asked if I was better, and I replied with confidence, "YES, I’m better."
I could see the physical relief wash over them as the tension in their shoulders eased, knowing that their mom would be okay.
I still have my moments of sadness; I still cry, feel anger over his absence, and miss him immensely.
First of all, you're welcome. 😉
Secondly, I know private 1:1 work with me isn’t accessible for everyone. I wanted to create a super affordable way for you to still work with me—to gain the same tools + coaching I give my private clients—just with less one-on-one touch from me.
As a widow and after having experienced significant loss + despairing grief, I'm on a mission to help as many people as possible free themselves from the shackles of grief.
Nope. Not at all.
While I am a widow—grief doesn’t just come from losing a spouse.
Inside we hold space for all kinds of grief: Partners. Parents. Siblings. Children. Friends. Even complicated or layered losses that are hard to explain. But the language will be a lot of 'death of your person.'
If you’re grieving… you belong here.
This space is for you.
Yes.
You don’t have to be ready to “do the work” just yet.
The Heartwork Collective is built to hold you—right where you are.
In the fog. In the disbelief. In the can’t-get-off-the-couch part.
There’s no pressure here.
Just support. Gentle guidance. And the reminder that you’re not crazy… you’re grieving.
When you’re ready to go deeper, the healing tools are here waiting for you.
But in the beginning? Sometimes you just need someone to sit beside you in the dark.
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline.
You might’ve been carrying this for years—quietly, heavily, maybe even functioning on the outside while still aching on the inside.
The truth? It’s never too late to feel better.
The Heartwork Collective meets you wherever you are—whether your loss was 6 weeks ago, 6 years ago, or 16.
This isn’t about hustling your way through healing.
You get to move at your own pace.
Some weeks you might dive into a video, journal through a prompt, or show up for a live call.
Other weeks, just being in the space—reading, resting, feeling—is enough.
Most members will probably spend about 1–2 hours a week here. But of course you can be here in more.
You show up how you can.
That’s more than enough.
Yes. 100% yes.
The Heartwork Collective can walk alongside your therapy—not replace it.
Most grief support groups focus on sharing stories.
Most online courses hand you information.
The Heartwork Collective does both—and then goes deeper.
This is a space where you’re held in your grief, guided through it with real tools, + supported as you start to feel better—for real.
No fluff. No toxic positivity.
Just real transformation, at your own pace, with people who see you.
Nope. Just a phone or a computer with internet.

“I was a widow in my early 40’s, who had years of medical training but couldn’t save my husband. I was desperate and hopeless. I was lost.
After he died, the minor inconveniences suddenly became huge. The mailbox being knocked over by a snow plow nearly sent me off the deep end. I had to process doing CPR on my husband, trying to support my children who also experienced that trauma — all while barely wanting to get out of bed.
I knew I couldn’t live like that foever.
So, I signed up for The Heartwork.
Things started to change. It was working — not because things got easier, but because it allowed me to process things more objectively instead of with raw emotion.
I can’t explain how or why it worked, but it did. I felt 1000x better.
I’m forever grateful. It changed my life.
And as much as it pains me to say it, I’m grateful for this path. I wouldn’t have asked for it, but I’m grateful now that I’m no longer crawling my way through the dark.
My perspective has changed. I know the things that really matter, and I respect myself enough to be as kind to me as I am to others. There are so many lessons that come through this kind of tragedy if you take the time to look for them, and Kari helped me find that light.”
