How to Get the Most Out of this Community

Community members are here to heal. Here’s the best way for each of us to get there:

Be supportive. Encourage and support your fellow community members. No one here is looking for your criticism, cynicism, advice, or judgement. (We can get those things on the rest of the Internet).

Share generously. Your stories and experiences may be exactly what another member needs to hear today to solve a problem or seize an opportunity.

Be constructive. We’re here to push each other forward and lift each other up. Find ways to help each other think bigger, reframe challenges, and stay curious.

Don’t spam, promote, or troll.  This Community exists to help you learn and heal. It’s not a place to spam, promote, or bully anyone else.

You're a Part of Something Bigger

By joining this Community, you’re also a member of Wellness Waypoint, our overarching community. You’ll be able to keep up with this Community's activity here, but also in your main Wellness Waypoint Activity Feed (think about it as our own Facebook newsfeed with Course and other activity all in one place).

Let’s get started.

Grief is never simple, but when you lose someone with whom you had a complicated, strained, or unresolved relationship, the grieving process can feel even more confusing and emotionally layered. Unlike traditional grief, which often comes with a sense of shared mourning and clear expressions of love and loss, grief in complicated relationships may bring a mix of emotions—sadness, anger, relief, guilt, or even regret over what was never resolved. You might find yourself questioning how you should feel, struggling with unspoken words, or facing conflicting memories of both pain and connection. Understanding grief in these circumstances means acknowledging its complexity, allowing space for all emotions to exist, and finding a way to heal that honors both your experience and your well-being.

As you work through the lessons, you can also connect to the Holding Space Community to post comments, participate in chats, or message other members who are working through the same things.  There is healing in community.
