Holly Strelzik is on a mission to rebrand grief. Her personal experiences including childhood trauma, a near-fatal aneurysm, and her husband’s diagnosis with Alzheimer’s Disease prompted Holly to reexamine grief first as a hospice volunteer and then in the form of a career shift. Her second act began when she was certified as an end-of-life doula, eventually leading to her certification as an Advanced Grief Recovery Method Specialist.™ During the many years Holly spent serving individuals and families facing a wide range of experiences related to grief and loss, she realized the deep need for widespread end-of-life literacy and care. It was out of that need that Center For The Heart, a nonprofit organization committed to delivering such services was born.

As Americans, our society has not set us up to deal with loss or grief. We’re not equipped to deal with the loss of a person, a job, or even a “thing”.
I wanted to share a few conversations I had last week with some amazing women. The losses they talked about were ones they didn’t even realize they were going through.
Discharging from military, having a baby (YES, I’ll tell you what the loss is), moving from one house to another….
What have you lost and how did you deal with the unfamiliar?
