What’s New in This Space

Small updates, big feelings - the latest from This is Grief.

This week has held a lot of outward movement; books travelling, conversations widening, and new support resources opening - all alongside the same quiet, ongoing heart of this work.

Here’s what’s been unfolding.

• The Year After Kahlia - Officially Launched
The launch was full; of people, of stories, of care. Thank you to everyone who came, who travelled, who stood beside this book as it stepped into the world. It was equal parts surreal and grounding.

• 28-Day Writing Companion - Now Open
The self-paced 28-day grief writing course has officially opened. Designed as a steady companion, it offers structure without pressure; daily invitations you can begin whenever you’re ready.

• Podcast Conversations Continuing
The conversations keep widening. Each one feels like another small door opening; less about promotion, more about normalising the truth of grief.

• Aoake Te Rā & Community Connections
A meaningful conversation with Aoake Te Rā, and ongoing discussions about how this work can support suicide loss communities more intentionally.

• Libraries & Bookshops
Auckland and Wellington Libraries are stocking the book. Schrödinger’s Books in Wellington as well. Seeing the book move into public and community spaces feels quietly significant.

• New on the Blog “The Empty Space”
A reflection on what remains after the noise fades; the part of grief that lingers long after the world moves on.

This work keeps moving - not fast, not loud; but rooted and real.

Thank you for walking beside me through all the chapters - the ones already written, and the ones still finding their voice.
