Talk Title: Honoring the Loss While Moving Forward
What if moving forward doesn’t require rushing past the grief but learning how to carry it differently?
Divorce often brings layered losses: not only the relationship, but the future once imagined, the sense of home, and parts of identity tied to that life. This session is designed to help participants
understand divorce as a form of grief and explore how emotional readiness plays a role in life and housing transitions.
What You’ll Explore in This Session
Participants will explore how grief shows up during divorce, why emotions can feel complicated or conflicting, and how to process loss without feeling stuck. The session also examines how
emotional readiness impacts housing decisions, including staying, selling, or starting fresh. Attendees will gain insight into how honoring grief can actually support clarity, healing, and
healthier forward movement.

Lisa Webb – Realtor & Owner

how housing decisions impact emotional healing, not just finances.
