Thank you for considering this container.

I read every application personally. Please take the time you need. There are no right answers. I am looking for a sense of who you are, where you are in your grief, and whether this is the season for this work.

What is your first and last name?

What are your preferred pronouns?

What is your best email address?

What is your preferred phone number? (optional)

Where do you live (city, state or country, and your timezone)

What is the focus of your work?

What you are carrying?

Tell me about the loss or losses you are working through.

What feels most present for you right now?

Your path so far

What have you done to support your grief healing up to this point?

What has worked for you?

About the Container

Held in Becoming is a small group of thirteen women meeting weekly on Zoom, cameras on, for nine months.

You will be sharing and witnessing alongside women whose lives, beliefs, and grief journeys may be very different from your own.

How comfortable are you listening and sharing in a small group?

How open are you to being in a container with women from different cultural, political, and spiritual backgrounds?

Are you comfortable in a space that is spiritual but not religious?

Can you commit to Wednesdays, 1 to 3 pm ET, for the full nine months (May 20, 2026 through March 17, 2027)?

One last thing

Is there anything else you would like me to know?

How did you hear about Held in Becoming?

What happens next?

Once I receive your application, I will read it carefully and reach out within 48 hours. Depending on where you are, I will either welcome you in directly or schedule a conversation to talk more.

If at any point you decide this is not the right container for you right now, that is okay. Your honesty helps me build the right circle for everyone.

With care, Jen
