Grief can feel isolating — but healing rarely happens alone.
Join us on Friday, April 24 for the first San Francisco Grief Summit, an intimate evening of honest conversation, reflection, and community with people who understand the many forms grief can take.
Hosted by USA Today bestselling author Jenny Brandemuehl, the summit brings together authors, physicians, grief counselors, and community members for a meaningful conversation about navigating loss, trauma, and the journey toward healing. Jenny will share the story behind her memoir Forever Fly Free — which chronicles the five months she spent caring for her husband after a devastating small plane crash left him with life-threatening burns. After his passing, she faced a profound season of grief and rebuilding that ultimately led her to rediscover purpose, resilience, and love again. She created this summit from a simple belief: healing grows in community.
