Helping you pause to remember your child at the start of a New Year

When you have experienced the death of a child, missed milestones are deeply felt. Grief can be very tender when another year approaches without your child. Perhaps this is also the time of their birthday or death anniversary?

You know the holidays will fly buy. You wish you could buy your child a gift and experience their delight when they open it. You are hoping for a moment to pause and focus on the sweet memories with your child. But the demands of the holiday season are already too much.

This is why RedBird is hosting our GOLDEN Guided Remembrance Experience on January 21st. GOLDEN gives you a quiet, reflective, personalized space for remembering your cherished child.

Instead of flipping the calendar into a new year weighted down by the pain of grief, give yourself the gift of planning ahead. Knowing that when the hustle of the holidays is over, you have a date on the calendar to reconnect with your child and bring their memories forward into the New Year.

Join RedBird founder, Dannell Shu, on Sunday, January 21st at 2:00pm CST for a Live Zoom event as she personally guides you through the GOLDEN Guided Remembrance Experience ~ a time focused on reflection, remembrance and gratitude for your child.

Dannell’s calm presence and compassionate wisdom will guide you step-by-step through seven invitations to actively remember your child this season. Each invitation includes thoughtful choices you can make to personalize your GOLDEN remembrance. As a fellow bereaved parent, Dannell deeply understands the continued connections we share with our children and the importance of pausing to remember them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I do a GOLDEN Guided Remembrance Experience with my children?

Yes. We have created GOLDEN for people of all ages. We recommend youth participate with at least one adult (for candle safety). Read below to find out how to get an Event Box to fit your family.

Is this event only for parents who have experienced child loss?

No. Anyone who has experienced the death of a child (6 months or older) in their life is welcomed to join this event. Parents, grandparents, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, friends, teachers, coaches, classmates, homecare providers... whatever your relationship to the child is, you are welcomed.

I have other friends / family members who would like to join this event, how can we do this?

One of the benefits of Live Zoom events is you can have people near and far join you for this Guided Remembrance Experience. Each participant will need to have their own ticket and event box. Here are three options:

*** People at your same address: Order Golden Deluxe for yourself, add on Golden Plus for each additional family member, select the same event dates, and have them shipped to the same address. This is an excellent option for adding a spouse or kids of all ages. We will assemble a special event box that fits your whole family.

*** People at a different address:
Orders for separate addresses need to be ordered separately. At this time we don’t have a way to ship a single order to multiple addresses.  For each household order one Golden Deluxe and additional Golden Plus(s) for the remaining household members. Repeat this for each household.

*** Everyone wants the Deluxe box: We get it, sharing isn’t easy, even in grief. If you have family members at the same address who would like to receive the GOLDEN Deluxe event box, simply order one for each person, select the same event date, and have them shipped to the same address. We will make sure each person gets to open a box prepared just for them.

I’m not a journal-type person, is this event for me?

Yes! We have designed GOLDEN and our Event Book so you can respond to the invitations through writing, sketching, or drawing. Designed for adults and kids of all ages.

Is there a sharing time during this Live Event?

No. Unlike grief support groups where people often gather to share about their grief journey, GOLDEN is focused on guiding you through a personal time of reflection and remembrance. Your complete attention is on you and your child. No time is spent sharing or listening to others share. Your Event Book privately captures your reflections. The Live Event gives you the added blessing of gathering with others who are also remembering their children. You get privacy and community.

Do I have to have my camera on for this Live Zoom event?

It’s optional. To enter the event, we ask that you have your camera on and that your Zoom name matches your registration name. Once you enter the event, you can choose to leave your camera on or turn it off. Grief is different for everyone. Some people like to be seen, others prefer a greater amount of privacy. RedBird supports both.

Do you offer GOLDEN as an in-person or private event?

Yes! Complete this custom event request form or ask questions via email hello@redbirdtime.com.

Do you offer events for other kinds of loss?

Yes. We offer gatherings for Loss of a Loved One.
