Grounded In Grief

Grounded In Grief is for anyone living in the after of a loss. Understand your grief and hold it safely.

Why you should join: Grief literacy that helps your feelings make sense, reflection prompts and live circles with grief educator Michele Bordonaro, in a community that never asks you to be fine before you are. Free to join.

The one-liner

A free Skool circle where grieving people learn what grief does to the body and steady themselves.

What they actually sell

Grounded In Grief, run by Michele Bordonaro, lives on Skool. Its public pitch: "Grounded in Grief is where people move from unsteady to grounded by understanding what grief is doing to their body, learning how to hold it safely." It is free to join. Michele Bordonaro, a grief educator and transformational guide, slows everything down. Inside are lessons in grief literacy so feelings make sense, reflection prompts that give language to what is happening, and a community that listens and witnesses. Live circles let members steady their hearts, say what hurts and remember what grief did not take. The framing covers loss of identity and life changes as well as bereavement. Inside sit 6 courses.

Who pays and why

People living in the after of a loss or an unwanted life change. They feel unsteady and unseen, and are tired of being expected to be fine before they are. They join for grief literacy, reflection prompts and live circles that never rush healing.

Where the members come from

Michele Bordonaro's Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and website presence appears to feed the room. The Skool community reads as the member back end for people already drawn to that work. Exact follower counts stay off the public page.

What's holding it back

There is no paid layer or next step, so the live circles depend on Michele's goodwill and the page gives no sense of how often they run.

Steal this

Widen your definition of the problem, such as grief for any change, so more people recognise themselves.

Would this work in another niche?

Yes for any quiet, isolating experience, such as infertility or caring for a parent. Weak for upbeat hobby groups.
