Speaking

Sharing my vision for grief and loss literacy.

If you are looking for a vibrant, inspiring, and heart centered speaker who can speak about grief and loss with skill, compassion and authority, consider booking a conversation with Dina.

I  bring real life experience of having suffered through my own loss, working alongside Olympians/Paralympians and sport coaches who have had to learn new ways to work through loss. I created Grief Unleashed to train professional leadership coaches and other caring professionals in the Art of Companionship.

I have spoken at dozens of national and international conferences on the topic of grief, loss, and living a purposeful life - whether you are a community based organization looking for someone to teach and motivate or a national corporation longing to learn from a credible humanistic leader whose story of loss and love is deeply touching, book a call with me to find out how I can elevate your conference’s understanding of grief,  loss and more humanistic and hope-filled healing practices.

KEYNOTE:
Re-imagine a new relationship with loss

How do you live your life after a loss that leaves you rudderless?  You start by acknowledging your pain and giving yourself permission to express it. Grief is our natural response to loss and supports a healthier way for us to mourn those we have loved. Unleashing our grief allows us to heal as we journey towards renewed hope. When you live life as if today could be your last day to express love, gratitude and affection to others, your life shifts.

Join Dina Bell-Laroche for this deeply moving and inspiring talk where you will learn how to make peace with your grief and live life in alignment with your deepest values. Dina offers a compelling story of how you can integrate your life losses in a healthy and hope-filled manner. People walk away feeling relieved, acknowledged and inspired to grieve and mourn, differently.

“Grief Unleashed provided me the space to see the grief and loss fragments that my body had been gathering for a lifetime in its nooks and crannies … ancestors, family, relationships, professional life, climate grief … This space has allowed me to recognize that grief is the other side of love, and that it is my responsibility to dive into the deep soul work required for a thriving life, this for myself and in holding space for others who also aspire to it.”
