TOOLS + CONSIDERATIONS FOR RAGGEDY TIMES
Check out the griefKit
Because none of us can avoid grief’s ashy-knuckled grasp.
There is no right way to navigate grief and loss. But it’s much easier to do with joy, community, and good snacks.
This crowdsourced griefKit has articles and essays, books, communities and toolkits, mindful movement, music and podcasts, recipes, activities for reflection and exploration, and lots of love.
Available in text form and as a joy-filled 55-page downloadable PDF.

Here’s what a few community members had to say about the GetSomeJoy Experience.
GETSOMEJOY@WORK CLIENT
“Alex did a great job bringing us together and creating a safe space with no judgment while supporting us through the most difficult time we’ve gone through globally. We all went through this together. To have that support was invaluable.”
Ayanna Fortson, VP of Housing
National Urban League
“…this was probably the first time I’ve ever really felt heard.”
LITERARY THERAPY ATTENDEE
“I’ve been to a lot of groups. I lead sewing workshops for domestic violence survivors. Outside of my therapist, this was probably the first time I’ve ever really felt heard. It was the best group I’ve ever been to. And I learned that I don’t listen enough. I’m so glad I found this space.”
Nubia Ptah, Founder
Nubia Cultural House
