Here’s a sentence you might not have expected to hear: Grief is weird.

Grief is full of contradictory emotions. Grief explodes time. Grief will make you laugh, it’ll make you cry, it’ll make you lament your existence, and be grateful for it. It’ll bring you to your knees, and then it will raise you up to the stars. Grief gives you perspective. It’s powerful and also gentle. It helps you see everything clearly and it sometimes obscures things too. Grief is full of fear and full of glory. Grief is beautiful. Grief is weird.

We are here to help guide you through that journey. I’m MC McDonald, and this is Tracy Benjamin. We are creators, magic makers, and grievers - and we’re here to grieve with you. We can’t take away what happened - nothing can do that - but we can help guide you through it. We can help you understand the waves that you’ve been hit by and the ones that are still coming. We can be your lighthouse. Because grief? Grief is weird.
