Presented by: Jodie Atkinson
Jodie Atkinson is a Certified Advanced Grief Recovery Specialist®, Speaker, Author, and Entertainer. Her debut book, "Have You Met My Grief?", not only serves as a written work but has also been transformed into an Award-winning Cabaret show that premiered at the 2023 Adelaide Cabaret Fringe Festival.
Following a profound personal loss, she became acutely aware of her own lack of preparedness to handle grief. She felt this was largely due to society's reluctance to openly discuss the topic of grief. Driven by a deep passion to help others dealing with grief, Jodie wrote a book on the subject. She also pursued
certification in the very program that had aided her in navigating her own loss, all with the intention of helping others.
