THE MOTHERLESS DAUGHTERS
COMMUNITY ONLINE

Here for you day and night — to share your personal story,
learn about mom grief, and meet others who know
what it’s like to lose and grow up without a mom. 

Mom grief can feel isolating. After all, no one else in the world had the same relationship with your mom that you did. That means no one else experienced the same loss. And maybe you’ve never known another daughter who lost her mom so young.

We get that here.

Whether your mother died last year or decades ago, our private, online space is designed to receive your story and your thoughts with curiosity and compassion. You’ll join a community of diverse, empathetic women who understand what you’ve been through, because they’ve lived through it, too.

At Motherless Daughters Online you’ll find:

Nobody tells you that the first two years after losing your mother are unlike anything else you'll ever live through.

The world keeps moving as if nothing has changed. Meanwhile, you’re left trying to find your balance a life that turned upside down in an instant.

IF YOU’VE BEEN LIVING WITH THIS LOSS, CHANCES ARE YOU KNOW AT LEAST A FEW OF THESE MOMENTS ALL TOO WELL

A private, members-only space on our online platform, built for connection and support.

– The ability to comment, share, and read at any hour — no need to wait for a scheduled time to log in.

– More than 15 designated chat threads for conversations of special interest to you.

– A live Coffee Hour with Hope once a month, open to everyone in the Community.

– Monthly writing prompts for self-expression and for putting your story on the page (starting in September!)

– Room to build genuine, new connections, at whatever pace feels right to you.

Inside the Recent Loss Circle, you'll find daughters who know what these early days ask of you — because they're living them, too.

You've been grieving without a witness long enough, sister.
Come pull up a chair and sit with us.


Not sure whether to join the online Community or an in-person
Circle?

Motherless Daughters Online is a great way to start. You'll have full access to the platform and a monthly call with Hope, without a weekly commitment.

If you'd like more structure, live small-group discussions, and ongoing support, Motherless Daughters Circles might be the better fit. You can move from the Community into a Circle at any time. Nothing here is locked in!

A NOTE FROM HOPE

I created this online community because I know what it’s like to feel alone with something no one else understands. You won't have to explain your story here, or soften it for anyone. Come to post. Come to ask questions. Come just to read, if that feels right. Whenever you’re ready to share, we're here.

And I’m here for you live, once per month, at Coffee with Hope. We gather one Saturday every month for an hour of unstructured conversation, to talk about whatever’s on your hearts and minds. It’s a chance to ask questions of me or of the group in real time. I’d love to meet you there!

PLEASE NOTE: 

Motherless Daughters Circles  are not intended to be a substitute for therapy. They are a place to receive peer support, not clinical assistance. We want to get to you know you and your story. But we must ask that you refrain from sharing graphic or violent details about assault, abuse, or traumatic loss that may be emotionally triggering for others.
