A Guide on Coping with
the Loss of a Child
An Online Guide for Individuals and Couples
Navigating Grief after the Loss of a Child
Embarking on the journey of healing from the loss of a child or other
traumas is a deeply personal experience. Whether you find yourself in the
midst of grief or navigating the complexities of emotions years later, our
guide is crafted to be your compassionate companion that can be done
with a partner at the same time or at your own pace as an individual.
We're here to help you fight for your own mental health as well as your partner's
Through all of these different traumas, we just found ourselves in this place of not knowing how to keep going at different times, and it took a toll on us mentally as individuals, but also as a couple. We hope to provide our supportive guidance so that you can feel seen, heard, and not alone in your grief.
You don’t have to walk this road alone.
In the midst of loss, we grapple not only with the departure of a loved one but also with the profound transformation of our own selves. Our program delves deep into these transformative experiences, guiding you through heartfelt conversations in our videos.
Navigating Sensitive Topics with Care and Understanding
A compassionate exploration of loss, the intricate journey it entails, the complexities of processing grief, the moments forever altered by it, and the ongoing navigation towards a new life and renewed relationships. We're here to support you through every step of this transformative journey.
Our society as a whole does not handle grief very well... but that doesn’t mean we can’t
There are many well-meaning people who simply can't relate. Some are unsure what to say, so they remain silent, leading to a sense of increased isolation. Join us as we guide you through navigating these challenges and having those difficult conversations.

Individuals and Couples to a Path Forward
Here’s what’s inside
A deeper look into who we are & why we (you) are here.
We address how to navigate each step uniquely for you and your own pace with your personal journey. This program can be completed on your own or together with your partner.

Loss can really affect your relationship with your partner. In this video join us as we process through some of the common effects loss can have on relationships, how to support one another, and how to communicate what you need in your grief. We also will share some of our greatest lessons we learned to help us go from surviving loss to growing stronger together.
Get to know us a little deeper and some of the moments such as infertility, miscarriages, and the death of our daughter that led us to create this course.
Finding others who can say “me too” is so incredibly helpful when you find yourself in deep grief. Our lifeline at many times has been others who have been willing to share their experiences as well. Feeling seen, understood and validated in grief is so helpful. In this video we will talk about community, vulnerability, men supporting other men, pregnancy after loss and ultimately the different perspectives on loss from male and female.
There is no right or wrong way to memorialize your child. Here are some simple ideas that we as well as other loss families do to bring awareness and honor their babies who have passed. We talk about holiday traditions, birthday traditions and how you and your partner may differ in this area.
Loss affects every area of life including friends and family relationships. Here are some helpful tips on dealing with initial responses, understanding why others struggle to support us, being selfish in your grief, taking care of yourself and helping others learn how to best support you.
Seeking help for your individual grief journey. Types of support, being honest with your partner about what you need. Finding people to lean on besides your partner and allowing others to come in and be that support.
Settling in with vulnerabilities and triggers for yourself and your partner. Coming up with a plan on how to handle things that trigger you both.
One of the things that helped save our relationship was professional counseling. Join us as we talk with Dr. Bruce Rumsey about seeking additional help. Bruce has specialized in intensive individual and couples counseling since 1993. He has his MA and a Ph.D. With the emphasis of his Ph.D. in couples and family therapy.

Moderation, numbing, being highly triggered and how to process through so that it benefits your healing journey along the way instead of hindering.

Our Story
Our names are Cody and Heather Baker, we have been married for about 13 years and during those 13 years, we have experienced hardship and loss. At times,we have felt very supported, and at other times, we felt isolated and alone. Parts of our story include walking through infertility, multiple miscarriages, and losing our daughter Blakely at birth.
Through all of these different traumas, we just found ourselves in this place of not knowing how to keep going at different times, and it took a toll on us mentally as individuals, but also as a couple. We hope to offer our counseling services so that you can feel seen and heard and not alone in your grief.
