We never get over grief, we carry it forward as a testament to the one we loved. But while your grief is personal, it doesn't need to be isolating.
My goal is to normalize grief and cultivate a curated grief community. I provide resources to support and connect you with others who have also experienced loss. Through networking, grief groups, and digital connections, I help validate your loss and make it relatable, not just to you but to the community that surrounds you.
"My husband was actively dying at home under hospice care. Kathleen was often a source of information to me during this two year process... She preserved the good memories of our last day together shielding us from the harsh realities that present themselves immediately after death." -Celia C.

The Language of Loss is a collection of stories about the overwhelming heartache of grief and the way in which we grow through pain. Author Natalie Sanchez uses her own experience of losing her dad at 18 as well as other stories of loss to help people in similar positions deal with their own grief.
Becoming Human explores the essence of grief and its evolutionary nature. Through cherished childhood memories, deep reflections, and current life experiences, Natalie Sanchez provides an introspective commentary on loss. This collection of vignettes features core themes of longing, connection, growth, and love, all sewn together by the universal desire to be understood. Becoming Human honors the grieving experiencing in many forms, documenting secondary losses, identity shifts, and the journey from girl to woman. Sanchez details her experience with honesty and hope that we can collectively return to our most intrinsic condition, that sweet spot of imperfection, depth, and shameless authenticity.
