Holding Space: Scripts for Being There When Someone’s Grieving or Struggling
What to Say (and What Not to Say) When Someone You Love Is Hurting
You want to help. You care deeply. But when someone you love is grieving, unraveling, or just not okay, it’s hard to know what to say—or how to say it without overstepping.
This Script Pack is your quiet guide for those emotionally delicate moments. Inside, you’ll find grounded, emotionally intelligent scripts for showing up without pressure, holding space without fixing, and offering comfort without cliché.
Whether you're supporting a friend after a loss, reaching out to someone who's withdrawn, responding to trauma disclosures, or simply trying to stay present over time, this pack will help you speak with compassion, clarity, and care.
What’s inside:
– 6 themed sections with 30 emotionally intelligent scripts
– A powerful self-check-in guide before you reach out
– A reflective closing to help you integrate what you’ve learned
– Guidance for tone, presence, and emotional steadiness
– Gentle language that honors grief, pain, and quiet resilience
This is not about saying the perfect thing. It’s about showing up with your full heart—honestly, gently, and without trying to fix what can’t be fixed.
If you’ve ever said, “I just don’t want to say the wrong thing,” this was made for you.
