Julia | Girl Meets Grief
Girl Meets Grief is a community founded by writer & grief specialist, educator and advocate Julia Morin. Julia is a childhood loss survivor whose mother died suddenly and tragically nearly 30 years ago, shortly after Julia turned eight years old, and less than one week after Mother’s Day—and she has experienced a number of other losses in her life. Julia is fiercely passionate about normalizing conversations and ending the stigma around grief, as she continues to navigate the various manifestations of this significant early loss in her own life. She is especially passionate about work around mother loss and childhood loss, as a result of her lived experiences. Her approach to grief support is rooted in the belief that grief, like love, lasts forever—and while we never “get over” it or “move on,” we can learn to move forward with it, live alongside it, and integrate it into our lives.
