Meet Olivia

Olivia, grief recovery specialist at Bond Grief Collective in Manhatten, Kansas.

Olivia became a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist because she knows what it’s like to carry pain long after life expects you to move forward.

After losing her oldest brother at 17 and navigating other traumatic losses and painful life experiences, she spent years trying to navigate grief alone without the tools to truly heal what was hurting.

Discovering The Grief Recovery Method changed that. For the first time, she found a way to work through what she had been carrying instead of simply learning to live around it.

Today, Olivia helps others do the same. Creating a warm, welcoming space where you can be honest about what hurts, feel truly heard, and find more freedom to live fully again.

Meet Austin

Austin, a grief recovery specialist at Bond Greif Collective, helping clients navigate loss and healing, in Manhattan, Kansas.

Austin is a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist and U.S. Army veteran who served 10 years as an infantryman before medically retiring.

His own experiences with loss, transition, and life after service shaped his passion for helping others who have spent years being taught to push through, stay strong, and carry the weight on their own.

Austin understands that asking for help isn’t weakness and that some of the hardest battles don’t end when the uniform comes off.

Today, he provides a straightforward, down-to-earth space to put down some of what you’ve been carrying, work through what still hurts, and move forward without having to do it alone.
