supporting the health and well-being of widowhood

The death of a life partner is a natural part of our shared human experience—yet the grief that follows can be profoundly isolating, disorienting, and life-altering. In the quiet aftermath, many women find themselves holding the scattered pieces of what once was: identity, companionship, future plans, emotional safety, financial stability, or the role of co-parent.


At Sunrise Retreats, we believe widowhood deserves more space, more care, and more conversation. As a nonprofit founded in 2017, our mission is to provide accessible education, meaningful connection, and professionally guided support that honors both the pain and the possibility of life after your partner’s death.


Our offerings are grounded in current research and holistic well-being, complemented by practical tools and compassionate facilitation. 


Program details

"I feel …lighter, empowered and leaning into joy. And I’m not exaggerating. I finally felt heard and acknowledged. "


2024 Participant

Grief is intimate, but something shifts when it’s witnessed. Through a community that understands and a curriculum rooted in resilient grieving, women begin to feel seen in their experience and gently reconnect to their inner wisdom.


Our retreats and educational programs are designed to support the full spectrum of experiences associated with widowhood. We honor the past. We meet each woman exactly where she is. And we create space for a future to unfold—rooted in truth, autonomy, and healing on her terms.


This is where education and community meet healing. 


Our program is a meaningful complement to therapy and an intentional next step beyond traditional grief support groups. It offers a gentle bridge between professional counseling and personal integration, where guided experiences and science-backed learning deepen the ongoing work of rediscovering life after loss.
