Our vision is to create a Good Grief community that shines a light on small, woman-owned businesses.
We also donate a percent of revenue each quarter to a non-profit organization that's making the world a better place. Last quarter we donated to Gerard's House, a local center for grieving children and families.
Not sure what to do? Start here.
A care package is a thoughtful collection of items designed to support someone through a hard moment - whether that’s grief, burnout, illness, a breakup, or just a really tough week. It’s a tangible way to show you care when words don’t quite cut it.
Flowers are lovely… but they don’t last very long.
A care package is something they can actually use - small comforts, thoughtful touches, and things that stick around a little longer than a bouquet.
Always. You don’t need a “perfect” reason or the perfect words - showing up in any way matters. A care package simply says, “I’m thinking of you,” without putting pressure on what to say.
A mix of comfort, practicality, and a little bit of “you’ve got this” without the toxic positivity.
Yes , that's what we're here for! You can ship directly to your recipient and include a personalized message in a card that we'll handwrite so it feels thoughtful and personal.
Yes - and it’s kind of our thing. You can choose from hundreds of items to create something that feels personal, specific, and actually meaningful to the person receiving it.
All kinds. From grief and loss to miscarriage, illness, mental health, job loss, breakups, or just “life feels heavy right now.” If someone is going through it - we’ve got something for that.
Honestly? Most people don’t. That’s exactly why we exist. A care package helps you show up with care and intention - no perfect wording required.
We certainly do! We work with modern, thoughtful workplaces that want to support their people in a more human way - not just with policies, but with something tangible. Check out our Employee Gifting page for all the deets.
Let customers speak for us
Cindy Austin
This gift was ideal for saying more than I’m sorry for your pain—it adds dimension to the desire to give comfort and to console someone you love who is hurting deeply. It shipped to the cc address so I reached out to fix this issue and they did so immediately! Very grateful you all exist—thanks for what you do!

A Truly Thoughtful Alternative
Good Grief has become my go-to for both the happiest and the hardest moments in life. They’ve been a meaningful gift for friends, colleagues, and especially a dear friend facing breast cancer. It’s just so much more personal than sending flowers. Thank you for being the thoughtful small business I can always count on.

There have been many times, especially recently, that I have looked to Good Grief for the right card, book, or bath item. The pre-curated boxes are a perfectly selected mix of thoughtful gifts. I recently made a mixed BYO for my little one & myself for extra TLC at bath times. It's perfect!

This is such a lovely company, I purchased their sitting with sadness cards for a friend and they loved them. Their care packages seem great as well. I love that this exists for helping support loved ones going through loss. So important

Reframing my relationship with my soul dog
I purchased this book because I lost my beloved soul dog in Sept 2024 and was looking for outlets to process it. Pet loss grief has been the single-handedly most painful experience I have been through. A helpful tool in this book is the grief feelings wheel to assess where you are at this moment. I like that I have the option to work through the meditations in whichever way serves me. Lately I have been thinking of his last earthly day with us and keep replaying in my head and its traumatizing. This exercise helps me re-frame it by writing a letter to and from my beloved. I know I gave him the best day he could have possibly had, but sometimes it doesn’t feel like enough. I know Beth’s book will help me navigate this soul shattering journey I am on. Would highly recommend to anyone currently experiencing or knows someone that is.
