Grief tended in rhythm, ritual, and relationship.

A place to bring what feels unbearable — and not have to face it alone.
 

Here, you can arrive just as you are. You’ll be gently led through safe, grounding ways of tending to your grief, with others who understand.

Nothing to fix. Nothing to prove.

Just a place where your grief is always welcome, week after week.

If You're Here ~ You Belong

If you’ve already met your grief — through loss, heartbreak, or the quiet unraveling of a dream — and long for a place to tend to it, you’re in the right place.

The Tribe of the Broken-Hearted is for those who want to honour the truth of their grief, rather than turn away once the world moves on.

We gather because grief doesn’t end — it changes shape. Without tending, it can harden in the hidden corners of the heart, quietly dulling our joy and vitality.

Here, we keep grief alive in a good way. Week after week, we return together — to breathe, move, listen, and remember that sorrow belongs to the village... and that sorrow opens our hearts to live more deeply.

In this circle, your grief is never too much.

It can rest, expand, and be witnessed in its wholeness.

 

This is a community for those learning to live with grief as teacher, not enemy — and to discover the belonging that grief itself reveals.

The Rhythm

The Tribe of the Broken-Hearted is held in a steady, spacious rhythm that allows grief to be tended over time — without pressure to attend everything or keep up.

Weekly Tribe Gatherings

The Tribe meets live each week at two consistent times, and members are welcome to attend live whenever they are able.

  • Every second Wednesday — 5:00–6:30 PM Pacific (first session April 1, 2026)

  • Every second Sunday — 3:00–4:30 PM Pacific (first session April 5, 2026)

Each gathering follows a familiar spiral of arrival, grounding, grief-tending practices, witnessing, and closing. Every session stands on its own — there is no expectation to attend every week in order to belong.

The Culture of Belonging

The Tribe is guided by a rhythm of safety, reverence, and humanity.

You don’t need to know what to say or how to be.
You can listen quietly, speak when ready, or simply let the presence of others help carry what’s heavy.

 

There’s no fixing here, no right way to grieve — only practice, breath, and the remembering that we heal through being witnessed.

Every voice, every tremor, every silence belongs.

and what was too much for one becomes possible for many."

A Few Gentle Details

What does it mean to belong to the Tribe?
 Belonging to the Tribe means being part of a group of people who live with broken hearts and understand what that feels like. Many members describe relief at discovering they are not alone, and a sense of being “okay” even in the midst of grief — in a world that often expects us to move on as if nothing happened.

What if I can’t attend every session?
 The group is ongoing, and sessions are recorded — you can join when you’re able.

Is this group open to new members at any time?
 Yes, but we take care to welcome newcomers in a way that feels safe for the group.

Do I have to participate in every discussion?
 No. You can simply listen if that feels right.

How are the different types of losses addressed?
 Tribe sessions support all kinds of losses without comparison.

What if I’ve already done other grief work?
 Many members have done previous grief work but value the ongoing community and the chance to keep tending grief regularly.

What if I get triggered during a session?
 You can pause, turn off your camera, or step away. You can also message the facilitator for support. Facilitators are trauma informed and can help as needed.

How private and confidential is the group?
 Confidentiality is a core agreement. What is shared in the group stays in the group.

What does it cost?
 Membership is $125/month | $300 for 3 months | $500 for 6 months

Come Site By The Fire

When grief is met with presence, it becomes something we can live with — even love through.

The Tribe of the Broken-Hearted is a hearth for that remembering.

A place to keep tending what loss has opened, to stay close to what’s real,

and to be accompanied in the long work of healing.

If your heart is longing for belonging in loss, and steady company through what life continues to ask of you, you belong here.
