Don't be weird: Book Club

Service Description

📖 Welcome to the Don't Be Weird Book Club! Thank you for joining us as we journey through Don't Be Weird: A Practical Guide to Supporting Your Grieving Friends by Dawn Nowlan. This free virtual book club is designed to create a safe, supportive space where we can read, learn, reflect, and have meaningful conversations about grief, healing, support, and the power of showing up for others during life's most difficult moments. Whether you are grieving a loss yourself, supporting someone who is grieving, or simply wanting to better understand how to show up for others, you are welcome here. This book club is facilitated by Katie Anderson, Founder of Healing with Katie, Certified Grief Coach, Mental Health Advocate, and graduate of Oxford's Grief, Death & Deep Healing Diploma Program. Katie is passionate about helping individuals navigate grief, life transitions, healing, and personal growth through education, compassionate conversation, and practical tools. Together, we will explore the lessons and insights found within Don't Be Weird while creating a community built on respect, understanding, and connection.
