Workbook

After Loss

A 12-Week Grief Guide for Death — Parent, Partner, Child, Sibling, Friend

Grief does not follow a schedule. But it does leave a shape you can name.

This is for:

For the person carrying grief from a death that arrived and stayed past the point where anyone asks about it — who needs a structure for the weeks, not a theory about stages.

You'll produce:your Your After Loss Charter

The Name It First Experience

Twelve weeks after a death, most people have stopped receiving casseroles and started receiving expectations. The grief is not twelve weeks old. This workbook is a structured record of what loss is doing in your body, your relationships, and your sense of who you are without this person. You will name what the loss took and build Your After Loss Charter — a documented account of what you carry forward, in your own words.

You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.

Sample questions

  1. What did this loss actually take — not in the expected categories, but the specific things about your daily life, your sense of yourself, or your sense of the world that are different now?
  2. What part of your grief has no language for it yet — the thing you are carrying that you have not been able to put into words?
  3. What would The Grief Record hold — honestly and without the shape other people want it to have — about what this loss has been, what it is taking, and what is still true about your life?
