Join us for a small, no-pressure brunch created especially for widows—a place for good food, easy conversation, and a table where you don't have to pretend to be “fine.”

This is a relaxed opportunity to meet other women in-person who understand the complicated mix of grief, hope, laughter, and learning how to move forward. Come as you are and take your seat at a table where you can simply be yourself.

• A reserved table with women who understand grief
• Gentle conversation starters with no awkward spotlight moments
• The freedom to share as much or as little as you would like
• A warm welcome so you are not walking in alone
• A chance to enjoy good food, meaningful conversation, and genuine connection

Seats are limited so we can keep the gathering small and allow room for comfortable, intimate conversation.

We would love to have you join us at the table.

Grab your favorite cookie, pour yourself something to drink, and join us for a relaxed evening of connection with other widows who understand that grief and life can exist side by side.

Cookies & Connection is a simple, pressure-free space to pause, check in, and spend a little time with women who truly get it. You are welcome to share, listen, laugh, or simply enjoy being present.

Join us because connection can help you:

• Feel less alone in what you are carrying
• Build friendships with women who understand
• Make room for encouragement, hope, and a little joy
• Step away from the pressure to always be “fine”
• Remember that you do not have to rebuild life by yourself

Come as you are. Bring a cookie—or don’t. The most important thing is that you join us.

We would love to see you there.

NOW WHAT? Finding Your Next Faithful Step After Loss

Thursday, August 20, 2026 | 7:00 PM EST | Virtual Workshop

After loss, one of the hardest questions can be surprisingly simple:

Now what?

You may know that you don't want to remain stuck in survival mode, but that doesn't mean you know what comes next. Rebuilding can feel overwhelming when your life, identity, routines, and plans have all changed.

NOW WHAT? Finding Your Next Faithful Step After Loss is a faith-rooted, no-pressure workshop for widows who are ready for more than survival but aren't sure where to begin.

During our time together, you'll be encouraged to:

• Name where you are in this season without judging your progress
• Understand why figuring out what comes next can feel so overwhelming
• Consider what you need most right now
• Reconnect with what matters to you in this season
• Identify one practical, faithful next step toward rebuilding
• Make room for grief and hope to exist together

This is not about fixing your grief, rushing into a new life, or pretending that your love story no longer matters. It's about finding clarity, steadiness, and direction for the next part of your journey—one step at a time.

You don't have to have everything figured out. You only need a safe place to begin asking:

What is mine to do next?

Hi, I’m Andria, founder of The RESTORED Widow. I created these events because grief can feel isolating—and connection can be healing when it’s gentle, honest, and pressure-free. My hope is that each gathering feels like a small exhale… and a real next step.
