You’re carrying something heavy. You don’t have to carry it alone — or drop everything else to survive it.
Whether you’re grieving and trying to keep leading, or a business that wants to show up better for the people who are — you’re in the right place.
I know what it is to be in freefall.
When my son died, I found myself flailing — only able to react, not respond. No control. No clear path forward. What I needed wasn’t sympathy. It was a guidance system.
What came to me in those early days were two words: conscious and curious. Conscious of every emotion — the good, the bad, the unbearable — because stuffing them in a box was never going to work. Curious about how to take the next breath, the next step, and eventually, how to find out who I was now and what I wanted to do with my life.
That became my path. And it became my work.
I’m Suzanne Jabour — a grief educator, transformational coach, and a mom who lost her son in 2020. I’ve spent years helping leaders, individuals, and organizations understand that grief doesn’t have to be survived in isolation or silence. There’s another way through.

I'm a leader who is grieving
Leading while grieving is a lonely time. You’re holding it together at work and then paying the price at home. Your brain doesn’t work like it used to and your business still needs you. Click to learn more about how you can shift all of that.

I lead a business that wants to support greivers
The cost of hidden grief in the workplace in the US is over $225 Billion annually. I can help you plug that leak. With services ranging from a one time Lunch and Learn to a full company skill and toolbox upgrade, I can help you save money and build productivity, retention and engagement.
My approach
My approach is all about a realization I had in my acute grief. I needed to be conscious and curious. That understanding set up everything from those earliest days to now. Conscious of all the emotions, the good, the bad and the ugly. Allowing them all because stuffing or denying them would break me. Curious about how on earth to survive and then what was possible.
That mantra and approach shapes everything I offer. It informs how I support a griever to find their own unique path. It is a touchstone for my leadership programming and how I approach companies that want to support grievers better
