You don't need perfect words to make a difference. You just need to show up. When someone you care about is grieving, it's hard to know what to say or how to help. Do you bring food? Do you give space? Do you try to cheer them up or let them cry? Most of us were never taught how to support someone through loss. We fumble, fall quiet, or retreat altogether not because we don't care, but because we don't know what to do. This book changes that. I Wish There Was Something I Could Do is a practical, compassionate guide for anyone who wants to support a grieving friend, colleague, neighbor, or love...
You don't need perfect words to make a difference. You just need to show up. When someone you care about is grieving, it's hard to know what to say or how to help. Do you bring food? Do you give space? Do you try to cheer them up or let them cry? Most of us were never taught how to support someone through loss. We fumble, fall quiet, or retreat altogether not because we don't care, but because we don't know what to do. This book changes that. I Wish There Was Something I Could Do is a practical, compassionate guide for anyone who wants to support a grieving friend, colleague, neighbor, or loved one. Written by grief literacy and resiliency expert Julie Martella, this book offers tools, language, and presence to walk alongside someone who is hurting without needing to fix their pain. You'll learn: -How grief actually works -What to say and what to avoid -How to offer help without overstepping -Tangible ways to take action when everything feels helpless -A clear, flexible framework known as the Five Pillars of Compassionate Support Drawing from lived experience, grief education, and years of community-based mentoring, Martella gives readers a toolkit complete with everything they wish they had known sooner. From understanding the grieving brain to navigating cultural differences, workplace grief, ambiguous loss, and long-term sorrow, this guide doesn't just educate. It empowers. This is not a book about grief theory. It is a guide for real-life moments. Whether the loss happened yesterday or ten years ago, whether you are supporting someone you love or someone you barely know, I Wish There Was Something I Could Do will help you show up with steadiness, kindness, and confidence. Grief is not a problem to be solved. It is a deeply human experience that deserves to be witnessed. With the right support, no one has to go through it alone.
