Author & speaker

Grief, hope & all the life in between

Hi! My name
is Clara

I’m a writer and speaker.

Growing up on a farm taught me to enjoy nature and simple living. I’m a mother of eleven and the author of Silent Grief.

For more than 25 years, I’ve been a public speaker and an online voice for bereaved parents. I share from my own experiences of love and loss, offering understanding, encouragement, and hope for the days ahead.

Whatever brings you here,
there’s a place to begin.

A little more
company.
