The Brave Widow Systems we Use

Step 1: Escape survival mode with the Chaos to Calm Blueprint.

If your life feels like a never-ending game of emotional whack-a-mole, this is where we flip the script.

Inside this step, you’ll learn how to:

  • calm the mental chaos,

  • reconnect spiritually,

  • build a life-giving routine (yes, one that actually works for you),

  • and finally feel like you can breathe again.

We’re talking less anxiety, fewer “what was I supposed to be doing again?” moments, and more peace in your day — even if your to-do list is still trying to launch a coup.

 

Step 2: Rebuild Confidence with the Self-Trust System.

Let’s be real: when life throws you off a cliff, it’s hard to trust yourself to even pick dinner, much less make big life decisions.

In this step, I'll help you:

  • quiet the second-guessing,

  • stop treating every decision like it’s life or death,

  • and start building real trust in your own instincts again.

You’ll learn how to move forward, even when the next step feels shaky, and actually feel good about it. Want to take that solo trip? Start something new? Just feel solid making everyday choices again?

This is where it happens.
One brave decision at a time.

 

Step 3: Meet People + Make Friends with the Connection Protocol.

Making friends as an adult feels weird. Like… where do you even go? Is there an app? A sign-up sheet? A secret handshake?

If you’ve ever felt awkward trying to meet people (especially after loss), this step is your lifeline.


You’ll learn how to get out of your head (and out of your house) and find people who actually get you.  People who share your values, interests, and dreams for the next chapter.

I’ll walk you through exactly how to build meaningful friendships, even if:

  • You’re a card-carrying introvert.

  • You dread small talk with a fiery passion.

  • You have no idea where to start or what to say.

You don’t need to “put yourself out there” the old way.
I’ll show you how to build connection in a way that feels safe, natural, and real.

Because you weren’t meant to do life alone.

 

Step 4: Find Purpose + Meaning for your life in the Discover Your Purpose Plan.

“Finding your purpose” can sound… huge.
Like you have to launch a non-profit, write a book, or finally learn the cello.

But purpose isn’t just some giant life mission; it’s how you show up in your everyday life.

In this step, I’ll help you:

  • Redefine what purpose really is (spoiler: it’s not one big thing).

  • Learn how to find meaning even in the small, quiet moments.

  • Start building a life that feels aligned, fulfilling, and yours again.

You don’t have to have it all figured out to begin.
You just need a little clarity, direction, and space to dream again.

I’ll help you uncover what lights you up — so you can stop just existing and start really living.

 

 Step 5: We pull it all together inside of the Move-Forward Method.

What does it really mean to move forward after loss?

Are you supposed to leave your person behind?
Forget the life you had?
Magically start fresh and never cry again?

Hard no.

Moving forward isn’t about pretending everything’s okay.
It’s about honoring what you’ve lost while making space for what’s next.

Inside this step, I’ll help you:

  • Untangle guilt from growth (yes, you are allowed to feel better).

  • Redefine what moving forward means without pressure, timelines, or shame.

  • Finally answer the “now what?” question with clarity and confidence (and maybe even a little excitement).

This is where it all clicks.
You’ll start building a future that feels good for you, not just what other people think you should want.

 

YES, I'M READY TO REBUILD MY LIFE

 

You’ve survived the hardest thing.

Now, it’s time to decide: what will you do with the life you still have?

 

 

If you’re feeling stuck, unclear, unsure, disconnected... it’s not because you’re doing grief wrong.

It’s because no one gave you a clear process for what comes after.

That’s what the Brave Widow Academy is.

A simple, guided, step-by-step framework to move you from:

  • Lost to Clear
  • Unsure to Confident
  • Lonely to Connected
