The First Year Grief Roadmap.

Grief is Hard.

Navigating It Alone Is Harder.

Be among the first to experience this life-changing grief support course.


The First Year Grief Roadmap guides you through the first 12 months of loss, offering you practical tools, emotional support, and spiritual guidance—every step of the way.

As I open this course to the public for the first time, I’m offering it on a donation basis—because I don’t want money to be a barrier for anyone who’s grieving.

Similar grief programs cost $34/month to $1,000+. This one is offered from the heart.

Give what feels right to you.  Whether that’s nothing or a meaningful gift, you’ll receive full access either way.

When you sign up, you’ll immediately receive the First 72 Hours Guide and full access to the course.  

The first days after loss are the hardest. You don’t need answers—you need a hand to hold. This free guide offers gentle, practical steps for today.

Life is an amazing journey 

Unfortunately, it’s easy to get caught up in “the race”: working endless hours to attain success at the cost of our closest relationships only to find at the end of life that all the stuff we’ve accumulated doesn’t mean anything.  But, life can be lived on purpose; prioritized so that the things that are most important to us are nurtured and grown.  We can have balance where we work towards our greatest goals while making time for the relationships most important to us.  We can know our deepest values so that when push comes to shove, we act out of our deepest integrity and not compromise who we are in order to “get ahead.”  We can leave a legacy where our example can inspire others to live their best lives.  This is the promise of the “map to peace.”

Meet Tom — Your Companion on the Road to Peace

 A guide through life’s hardest moments.

For over 30 years, I’ve walked with people through life’s most meaningful (and often painful) moments as a hospice chaplain, pastor, and spiritual guide.

My life purpose is peace—not just the absence of conflict, but the presence of love, joy, and wholeness. I’ve sat at the bedsides of the dying, prayed with families in shock, and helped people discover meaning even in the middle of heartbreak.

I don’t have all the answers. But I’ve learned how to walk through grief with honesty, compassion, and hope. And I’d be honored to walk with you, too.
