How Can I Help?

Based on her best selling book of the same title, Sherrie shares with audiences tips and suggestions that best help support a grieving friend.

We all know someone who’s lost a loved one, or is going through a divorce, or has been diagnosed with cancer. But how many of us know what to do or say that can really help them?

Sherrie says, “After losing our son Brandon, my husband and I also lost some of our closest friends. I want to make sure people have the information they need, so they can comfortably support a grieving friend and strengthen those bonds of friendship, not destroy them.”

By sharing her personal journey of losing her son and consequently losing close friendships, Sherrie talks about transforming that pain into a tool to help others.

She says her mission now, is to help others support those they love and care about in ways that are comfortable and that help in the healing process.

Step Out of Your Stories and Step Into Your GREATNESS

You could say former TV News Anchor and reporter, Sherrie Dunlevy is a master storyteller. After all, she got paid to tell stories. But the truth is, we are all master storytellers, and most of the stories we tell are not based in fact.

Sherrie helps you step out of your stories so you can step into your greatness.

Did she just say the F word?

The dreaded F-word is not what most people think it is, it’s FEAR!
Fear of failure
Fear of embarrassment
Fear of success
Fear of rejection
Fear keeps us from living our best life and it robs us of our dreams, happiness, and success! Fear leads to a life full of no’s when we should be saying YES to many of life’s opportunities and experiences. In this talk, Sherrie shares with the audience how saying YES to life has lead to some of her greatest adventures and successes to date.

You don’t have to merely survive the loss of someone you love, you can and should THRIVE!
Grief can be excruciatingly painful, but it does NOT have to last forever and grievers needs to know they can LOVE their lives again after loss, IF they choose it and if they do the work to make it happen.
In this presentation, Sherrie Dunlevy, the founder of the Graduating Grief Academy dispel these kinds of myths, talks about why finding positive grief support is important, shares why choosing the wrong kind of grief support can cause more harm than good.
As a bereaved mother and daughter, Sherrie says she knows it is possible to “graduate” from the pain of grief and step into living life with purpose passion and JOY because she is “Living Proof” it can happen. Now she works to shine the light on hope and healing and helps people rediscover the JOY in living after loss.
