A checklist to navigate the admin tasks after the loss
You don't have to figure this out alone.
What to do when someone dies? We would rather not think about it when everything is good, but when it does happen — the emptiness is deeper and darker with the overwhelming tasks and things to take care of.
What's Next? is a compassionate, step-by-step guide for what needs to be done after losing someone you love — organized by what needs to happen, and when. Get the sense of stable ground and control in a world full of unknowns.

The Guide
One book. Everything you need to get through the practical side of loss.
Why I Made This
Friday morning, my husband passed away unexpectedly, and I found myself asking my mother-in-law the same question in a hospital waiting room that eventually became this guide's name:
"What's next?"
I made this so no one else has to face that morning without a map.
Who This Guide Is For
Anyone stepping in to help after a death — a spouse, an adult child, a close friend, or anyone handling affairs for a loved one who had no partner. You don't need to be the executor to find it useful.
It's also a meaningful gift for a grieving friend, family member, or anyone stepping in to help settle a loved one's affairs — a quiet way of saying I'm here, and you don't have to figure this out alone.
Have a Question?
Have a question before you order, or something you'd like to share? We read every message ourselves, and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
