WHO AM I?

Your Partner in Communicating.

I'm Kathi Balasek.

I train people and industries in grief literacy and empathy etiquette to retain, attract and serve grieving clients. 

I am a coach, consultant, speaker, university lecturer and widow advocate. 

I teach leaders and their team how to improve their grief literacy communication skills to best serve clients experiencing ALL types of loss.

Widowhood is financial! 

Experiencing the loss of my husband first hand, I learned that the relationship between key professionals and bereaved clients is pivotal. Combining 25 years of teaching, coaching and personal experience, I created Grief Literate Professional as a tool to help professionals retain, connect and support clients and employees experiencing loss and grief.

We will ALL experience grief and loss. Grief-informed leadership and communication are critical now! Brand compassion, attract and retain clients & employees to build a reputation as a grief SMART company.

Set the PACE with your people!
