Navigating Grief – November 18, 2025

Date: November 18, 2025, 12:00-1:00pm ET

“Grief isn’t an emotion that exists solely in the weeks and months after your person’s death. Grief is the repeated experience of learning to live in the midst of a significant loss.” – Marisa Renee Lee

Join 21/64 for a special session on grief: a feeling, an emotion, an experience that all of us have had or will have one day, and yet most of us privately endure. Together, we will consider new ways of approaching and discussing grief that not only normalize the experience but also open pathways for healing.

Hear from Steve Phillips (philanthropist, bestselling author, and podcaster), Ellen Perry (founder and principal of Wealthbridge Partners, LLC), Marisa Renee Lee (award-winning advocate, writer, and speaker on coping with grief and loss of all forms), moderated by Sharna Goldseker (founder of 21/64). They will share their experiences of losing family members, offering insight into how they prepared for loss, navigate grief, and continue to live, give, and lead in ways that honor their legacy. Discover what they do for themselves, recommend people can do for each other, and how they have channeled loss to make change in the lives of others.

This conversation is open to Certified Advisors as well as donors and professionals not yet in the 21/64 community. We hope to offer a space for learning and reflection, recognizing grief not as a single moment, but as an ongoing part of the human experience.

This session will take place on Zoom.

Fee: $95
Free for Learning Community

Testimonials.


This week, I participated in 21/64’s Talking About Money Training to challenge one of the oldest taboos – money. The team and facilitators are excellent, creative, and very engaging! Thank you to 21/64 for giving me a framework to look at how my own money story informs/inhibits money conversations with my family and clients, and practice facilitating tools to add value to my conversations around wealth, legacy, and philanthropic planning. It was wonderful and fun to learn alongside a diverse set of peers in the field. We even had an awesome guy from Budapest in our group!

This training exceeded my expectations and really took my learning from the 101 Training deeper and resonated with where I am professionally.

Other than grad school, it was the best professional development program I’ve ever been a part of.  It taught me a new way of approaching my work and interacting with donor families.

I highly recommend this training, even if you are quite experienced in family meeting facilitation and client management. In addition to providing outstanding content, the training works on almost a meta level — not only are you covering the toolkits and techniques for facilitating family meetings in detail, but in addition you are able to observe skilled facilitators demonstrate these techniques in action as they work with the group. You are able to reflect about yourself and about the approach you bring to client work as you use the tools, and you are also able to learn from and share best practices with the highly experienced group of peers who attend the training alongside you. A highly valuable use of time!

The training was such a life-changing and surprising gift. I am really excited about this idea of bringing my own experiences to bear on a consultancy that would combine philanthropy, family dynamics and youth development.
