Grief Resources

For the parent who doesn’t know how to comfort their grieving child; for the best friend who reaches for the phone to share good news, only to remember the number won’t be answered; for the father who lost his son and now drives past his favorite ball field with an ache in his heart; for the athlete who feels lost without their sport; for the individual facing the unbearable weight of an unexpected loss; for the nurse who has held the hands of too many patients taking their last breath; for the widow who wakes up every morning to an empty side of the bed, wondering how to move forward without their partner; for the teenager who lost a best friend and doesn’t know how to talk about the pain; for the first responder who has witnessed too much loss and carries the weight of every life they couldn’t save; for the grandparent raising a child after an unexpected loss, trying to be strong while grieving themselves; for the student who lost a mentor, a coach, or a teacher and feels like their guiding light has gone dim; for the teacher who notices the empty desk in their classroom and struggles to find the right words for their students; for the parents who had to say goodbye far too soon and are struggling to find meaning in their pain; for the sibling who feels invisible in their grief, because everyone assumes they’re “strong enough” to handle it; for the person who never got to say goodbye and is left with unanswered questions and unspoken words; for the community shaken by a sudden tragedy, searching for a way to heal together; and for many others. You are not alone.

At 50 By Friday, we have created a comprehensive grief resource hub to support individuals and communities navigating loss. Our Grief Toolkit and Conversations on Grief program offer guidance, understanding, and a safe space for healing. Whether you are looking for self-guided reflection, community discussions, or structured grief support, our resources are designed to meet you where you are in your journey.

Through our award-winning book, guided online grief program, live Conversations on Grief sessions, and free video discussions, we provide a flexible and compassionate approach to processing grief. We understand that grief cannot be cured—it can only be processed and understood. That’s why we have developed these resources with love, care, and deep respect for each person’s individual experience.

Whether you prefer to explore our materials privately, share them with a support group, or bring Conversations on Grief to your community, we are here to help. If you need support or guidance, please know that you are not alone—you can reach out to us anytime.
