Hi, I'm Jennifer Hacker

Life Coach and Grief Specialist

I can't thank you enough for all of the support this week. Reading these texts help keep me "afloat" and not feel so alone and hopeless. I think people see me not crying and they assume I'm ok. I'm not - I'm getting through each day, riding the waves, and trying to carry my mom with me every step of the way. Thank you for the work you do. 💜

There's a part of you that wants healing and hope

. . .

but there's the other part that feels like if you heal, it means you're betraying your loved one or worse, forgetting them.

I understand feeling this way because I've been there.

That's how I know whether your loved one died recently or years ago, walking around carrying the tremendous pain is like ... trying to climb out of a suffocating black hole ... while faking a smile and pretending you’re fine.

And to make things worse,

  • Your friends and family don't understand, "Shouldn't you be over it by now?"
  • You don't have the time, energy, or money to hire a therapist or go to meetings.
  • And the online groups you've joined ... they're just depressing.

That's where I come in -- your pocket grief coach.

What does that mean?

I'll send 1-3 text messages each week straight to your phone. I'll include resources, tools, tips, motivation, and most of all, encouragement to support and sustain you through grief.

You CAN heal and find hope after the heartbreak of loss and you won't forget your loved one in the process.

Regular, ongoing support and encouragement will allow you to make progress, one day at a time . . .  to move forward without moving on.

Hi, I'm Jennifer


I'm a certified Life Coach and Grief Specialist. 

When my infant son died in 2003, my world ended... but the rest of the world carried on as usual.

Over the course of many years I healed and learned how to be happy and fulfilled in life again. But getting there was a long, lonely road. I want your road to be less long and less lonely.

There's an enormous lack of support for grievers in our society. That's why I'm here... to fill that gap.

My goal is to not only help you get through the hard days but also help you believe the burden of sadness will lift and you can find a new level of happiness and freedom on the other side of grief.  

But first, you have to take a small step forward.

That’s why I created Grief Relief Texts – a simple text message membership where I send you uplifting and inspirational messages weekly to give you hope. 

You may not feel up to much else at this moment and that's okay. Let me be your support system for now.

Why Grief Relief Text Support?

Personal messages from someone who's been in your shoes

I don’t outsource this job to a virtual assistant or an agency. I write these messages myself … from my heart.💗

I’ve lived through and studied grief and loss for 20 years. I share information from a large library of resources including my personal journals and emails, and countless online articles and books I've read (and continue to read🤓).

I've done all the research and the legwork so you don't have to.

Professional training and resources

I'm a certified Life Coach and Grief Specialist.

My professional training and experience means I have the resources, tools, and understanding to better connect with you, share with you, and support you in loss AND in life. ✨

You always have your phone with you ...

Maybe you’re using your phone to distract yourself from your big emotions - which is totally understandable.

Why not use it as a tool for healing too?

While I can't be there with you in person, I can be "in your pocket" to encourage you on your life and loss journey.

Messages to Uplift and Inspire

Here's a peak at the kinds of messages you'll receive.

You and your healing are important . . .

I know, it’s hard to think about healing,  moving forward, feeling better.  Maybe you don’t want to feel better.  Maybe you think if you feel better, it means you're forgetting your loved one. Maybe it makes you feel guilty. It's perfectly understandable to feel ALL these things.

But, a couple things to note . . . 

  • It's not true - you won't ever forget your loved one. You can feel better AND remember. Your connection with your loved one will not be lost when you move forward and heal.
  • There's someone out there (probably lots more than one) who loves you and wants you to feel better ... Who wants you to muster up a little bit of courage and take a small step so you can start healing.

Maybe that small step is one you can take right now.

If you won't do it for yourself, will you do it for that someone who loves you?

  • If you want to make a donation, you'll be able to on the next page. If you don't, you'll have the option to sign up FREE and that is 100% agreeable.
  • Just use the coupon code GRTFREE and you will not have to enter any information other than what is needed to record you in the system and begin receiving texts.

I created this service because I know making decisions is hard when your brain is foggy or tired from grief. Saying yes to taking care of yourself - that can be even harder. 

I want you to feel comfortable and safe and get started as quickly and easily as possible. 

Please, pick whatever feels best and I'll be honored to join you on this incredibly important journey.

It's time to take the next step.
