Grief Doesn't Take the Summer Off

— so here are 3 videos to figure it out in under an hour 

for busy moms who still have playdates, birthday parties, and summer reunions to get through — while quietly carrying loss.

Does this sound like your summer?

  • The birthday party. The family reunion. The backyard BBQ. The playdate. They keep coming — whether you're ready or not.
  • You're showing up. Refilling the snacks. Laughing at the right moments. And inside, you're holding it together by a thread.
  • Nobody sees it. And someone is always going to say exactly the wrong thing — 'Everything happens for a reason,' 'At least they're in a better place' — and you'll have to smile through it.

You think feeling the grief will equal falling apart.

I've been there and here are the tools I found.

HERE'S WHAT'S INSIDE —

01

Video 1: Your Brain on Grief

  • The Wise Owl — what your brain is actually doing when grief hits in public, and why it makes complete sense
  • How to rewire your brain's response to grief triggers so you're not blindsided at every gathering
  • The difference between reacting and responding — and how to shift from one to the other
02

Video 2: Feel It and Keep Going

  • Nervous system regulation tools you can use in real time — even in the middle of Being Surrounded With Noise & Chaos.
  • The Feelings Wheel: identify exactly what you're feeling in the moment, even when it's a blur
  • Feeling and pattern recognition — understand your grief triggers before they catch you off guard
  • The 60-90 second technique: fully feel a feeling and move through it — without falling apart
03

Video 3: Navigate the Gatherings

  • What to actually say at playdates, birthday parties, and reunions when someone asks how you're doing
  • How to handle the well-meaning but completely unhelpful things people say — with grace and without losing it
  • How to start knowing what you need, when you need it — and how to ask for it

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

01

You have a calendar full of summer gatherings and grief doesn't care about your schedule

02

You're showing up — barely — holding it together by a thread that only you can feel

03

You pray. You mean it. And you're starting to wonder why it hasn't made this easier yet

04

You believe God gave us faith AND tools — and you're ready to use both

05

You want practical, science-backed guidance that works hand-in-hand with your faith, not around it

Your Catholic Grief Coach

Nichole Haugen

Hi, I'm Nichole Haugen — The Catholic Grief Coach.

I've sat with moms in the hardest seasons of their lives. And what I've learned is this: grief doesn't need to be perfect, and it doesn't need a timeline. But it does need the right tools.

These 3 videos are everything I wish someone had handed me before my first summer of showing up while quietly falling apart inside.

WHY $17

I priced this at $17 intentionally.

Because you're already spending so much — in energy, in emotional labor, in sleepless nights. The last thing you need is a financial barrier between you and the tools that can actually help.

$17. Less than a co-pay. More practical than most of what you'll find out there.

You might have seen or heard me around…

kind words from clients

"Nichole has a gift of bringing you where you are in your very first interaction with her. You'll be amazed at what you did not see in your grief! Her transparent guidance and weekly podcasts helped me feel my emotions with God-centered healing!" 🙏

—L.M.

“One on one coaching is awesome. You talk about one topic and then realize it’s something else or maybe a deeper issue going on. Nichole can pick up on tone and other things we don’t realize. She asks questions that help open up the conversation more so and gets you out of the same old loop and gets you unstuck.”

—A.B.

“I have been in grief groups before and wasn't sure if this one would be different. It really was. The faith aspect was a game changer. I didn't realize how stuck I was. I feel like I am back to ‘normal’ and doing things I enjoy again."

—J.F.

“Personal coaching is amazing! She (Nichole) helps me so much.  

She can see things I can’t see.”

—L.S.

“One on One Coaching helped me with accountability.”

—M.M.

"Nichole’s coaching has helped me organize and focus my thoughts.”

—C.M.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this therapy?

No. These are practical coaching videos with tools you can use immediately. Not a substitute for professional mental health support, but a powerful complement to it.

How long are the videos?

Under 20 minutes each and designed for busy moms. Each video is short enough to watch before the next gathering — designed to fit into your real life, not add to it.

Is this specifically Catholic?

The content is faith-informed and created by a Catholic grief coach, but the tools work for women of any faith background.

How long do I have access?

Once you enroll, the videos are yours — no expiration. Come back before every gathering if you need to.

What if I'm not ready to watch right now?

That's okay. Enroll now and they'll be waiting for you when you need them.

You have another gathering this summer.
