Queer-specific grief spaces affirm that all forms of love and loss are valid.
They offer a place where language, pronouns, and identities are honored rather than questioned, to a group of people who are often invisible or invalidated in mainstream support spaces.
Without this kind of intentional community, grief can compound isolation, leaving people to navigate loss without recognition of their relationships, their families, or their lived realities.
Jamie Thrower experienced this isolation herself - creating the Queer Grief Club as a result. What started simply as a space for her to tell their own story has grown and evolved into a space for queer grievers at large to find solace, support, resources, healing, and belonging in a community of others who understand the intersections of queerness and grief.
Your FACILITATORS
LoLo Paz
A Soulful Sorrow, founded by Lauren (Lolo) Paz, offers compassionate support for women navigating the journey of pregnancy loss. With deep empathy and spiritual insight, Lolo guides women to honor their grief, nurture healing, and rediscover purpose after loss. By encouraging women to deal with their loss soulfully rather than silently, A Soulful Sorrow provides a safe space for women to navigate their unique journey with grace and resilience.
What sets Lolo’s approach apart is her emphasis on embracing grief as a transformative journey and reclaiming one's spiritual connection amidst loss. Unlike old-paradigm approaches that may use cold & clinicalized methods, minimization, rushed recovery, and lack of spiritual support, Lolo’s approach integrates therapeutic practices, spiritual guidance, and self-care rituals to guide women toward healing and empowerment. Rooted in wisdom and grounded spirituality, A Soulful Sorrow is a beacon of hope and healing for those seeking peace, meaning, and renewal after loss.

Our Teaching / Learning / Creating Style at La Mort
We leave behind the polished, gate-keepy approach to education. We teach in ways that carry story and experience. We listen. We laugh (a lot). We go off-script sometimes. We cry (with you)(for those you’ve loved)(for those we’ve loved). We like science and studies and logical frameworks, but also mysticism and poetry and all that stuff. We really love to honor history and those who came before. We move through some serious curricula, but don’t take anything too seriously. We dedicate ourselves to seeing you, and want you to feel seen. We deeply honor our intuition and yours. We lead with integrity (always). And we welcome the odd-balls and misfits, because it takes one to know one.
