About The Life Starters
If you have experienced a devastating catastrophe — we understand.
We have tasted your grief.
And we’re here to provide a safe place to start over.
Because you are more than a widow, a veteran, a divorcée, a deported citizen, the father of a stillborn child, or the victim of a natural disaster.
You are more than your grief. More than your trauma. More than your loss.
You are a whole human being — willing to re-enter the world, and re-discover what brings you alive.
You are a Life Starter.
We’re Life Starters, too. And we’re building an action-based social network filled with extraordinary peers, volunteer-coaches, and resources & tools that have reignited thousands of our lives.
This is about breaking the cycle of grief, by training your brain to reward you for bravery, compassion & forward momentum.
Who is this for?
I know nobody can understand or know what you are going through. There are no words or real roadmap that can ever do justice when the unthinkable has taken place. When my husband died, I truly believed that a part of me had gone insane.

The Reentry Class
The Reentry class is the foundation of the Life Starters.
The Life Starters experience begins with the 6 week reentry class led by Christina Rasmussen. Each week you will receive a new video lesson, and every day you will interact with Christina and other members in the community as you complete your action step homework assignments.

“The grief that comes from devastating loss is bewildering and isolating. Lifestarters addresses both these things; it gives you a roadmap to help guide you back towards the light and travelling companions who speak the language of loss and bring comfort and understanding along the way. To keep with the travel metaphors, in the stormiest of seas, Lifestarters threw me a rope and I’m holding on tight!”
