Free Online Support Groups for Major life changes

Grief does not follow a timeline, and it does not discriminate by success, strength, or status. For high performers in particular, grief often goes unspoken, managed privately, or pushed aside in favor of productivity and responsibility. Over time, that suppression takes a toll. This group is a space for honest, grounded conversations about grief and the process of rebuilding resilience without bypassing pain. Whether you are navigating loss, major life disruption, or the quiet grief that comes with identity change, this group offers support that respects both your emotional reality and your capacity to move forward. Led by Blair Kaplan Venables, an internationally recognized grief and resilience expert, bestselling author, and founder of The Global Resilience Project, sessions draw from her Navigating Grief Framework and evidence-based resilience practices. The focus is not on fixing grief, but on understanding it, carrying it with intention, and strengthening the resilience required to live fully alongside it. ✨Session Goals & Outcomes 🌹Normalize grief as a valid and complex human experience 🌹Understand how grief impacts identity, focus, and emotional regulation 🌹Learn practical, research-backed methods to strengthen resilience 🌹Create space for reflection, storytelling, and shared understanding 🌹Support forward movement without minimizing loss 🎤 Speaker Bio: Blair Kaplan Venables — Grief & Resilience Expert, Author, Founder Blair Kaplan Venables is a British Columbia–based grief and resilience expert, motivational speaker, and the Founder of The Global Resilience Project, a community dedicated to sharing stories of resilience and healing through life’s most challenging moments.
