No Mother Should Grieve Alone
The Warrior Moms Support Foundation Inc is a nonprofit organization who provides a yearly healing retreat to bereaved mothers. We also help to gift the book ”Grieve like a Mother, Survive like a Warrior’ written by the Warrior Mom to mothers who have lost children — especially those who would otherwise go without support.
None of us ever wanted to become a “Warrior Mom"
We are mothers who buried children we loved more than life itself … and somehow had to learn to keep breathing afterward…
Warrior Moms was born from heartbreak, but also from the deep understanding that no mother should have to walk this journey alone.
What began as 14 grieving mothers sharing the stories of our children in Grieve Like a Mother: Survive Like a Warrior has become a sisterhood of love, support, and hope.
Through our retreats and community, we hold space for moms to cry, laugh, remember, break down, and slowly begin to heal. We remind each other that grief never disappears, but neither does love.
We are learning to carry both sorrow and joy.
We are learning to honor our children while still choosing to live.
We are learning to survive what once felt impossible.
We are learning to live in the AND…
We are the members of the club no one wants to be in
We have lost our precious children to accidents, overdoses, sickness, and suicide. Some of us are months out from our losses while others are years and decades down the road. Regardless of how our children left this earth or the amount of time that has since passed, we all share a common bond of missing and grieving our children…everyday.
We know what it’s like try to learn how to live in a new “normal”, in a raw state of grief and confusion, trying to figure out how to survive the depth of this kind of loss.
We decided to share our stories of loss and how we have navigated our difficult journey of child loss. We hope to share the message that while you will never get over this type of loss, you will get through this. Cling tight to your child’s memory and one day, you will find that joy can coexist with grief.

Warrior Moms Retreats: Learning to Live in the "AND"
Losing a child changes everything — but no mother should walk that journey alone.
Warrior Moms retreats are magical places, they create a sacred, hope-filled space created specifically for mothers who have experienced the unimaginable. Through trauma-informed grounding practices, heartfelt reflection, creative healing activities, prayer, laughter, and deep community connection, moms are gently guided to live in the AND — a space that honors profound grief while also allowing joy, hope, and light to exist alongside it.

Finding the Warrior... Within

Dates: Oct 16-18
Online Registration: TBA
In October 2025, we hosted our first Warrior Moms retreat where we welcomed a new group of moms into our “club no one wants to be in”. We came together; We had guest speakers; We worked in big and small groups. We participated in workshops and other learning activities to learn how to live with our grief. We had amazing fellowship and lifelong friendships were built! There were tears of course, but there was also smiles, hugs and laughs! And above it all there was LOVE! (Did we mention the rainbow during the hayride?)
The retreat was an emotional, reflective, amazingly unbelievable journey and an amazing success. The weekend was filled with dozens of volunteers, including an award winning author and TV talk show host, a Ms America, a local chef and lots of restaurants, churches, friends, relatives, strangers, local businesses and neighbors, who all came together and showed up big time the first Warrior Moms weekend retreat. We even had a “caping” ceremony where the “new moms” got their own super hero cape!

Learn About Our Book (& audiobook!)
'Grieve like a Mother, Survive like a Warrior'
We wanted to write a book we wished was available when we needed it. We wanted to hear the real stories, the dark days, the dark moments, and yet, we wanted to hear from moms who pushed through and found their smiles. We feel that child loss demands more than a clean and neat description of the five stages of grief.
Grieve Like a Mother, Survive Like a Warrior is a powerful and moving collection of reflections and real-life experiences from fourteen mothers who have faced the unimaginable—and chose to face it together. With honesty and compassion, they share what it means to live through the loss of a child, offering understanding, connection, and hard-earned wisdom discovered while trying to find a way back into the light from the darkened depths of their grief. Our book is also now available as an audiobook, with each chapter read by the Warrior Mom who lived it 🎧
If you or someone you know is walking this path, this book was written for you—with open hearts and the hope that it will help you feel just a little less alone.
