You don’t have to hold it alone.
Approachable grief support that honors what was and supports what’s next
Welcome!
I’m SO honored you’re here.
Are you moving through grief, loss, or a season of transition?
You might feel called to tend to your grief but not know where to begin, or worry that opening the door will be too much to hold.
You may also already be walking this path and feel ready to go deeper — to honor what has changed through ritual, ceremony, or more intentional grief work.
However you arrive, your grief is welcome here, and so are you.
Ways to Work Together
What is Realness Rising?
Intentional facilitated spaces, grief circles, community gatherings, and embodied conversations, where what’s real is welcome
The freedom to show up exactly as you are, without pretending or performing
Presence, clarity, and care without pressure to “heal” or move on before you’re ready
Space to breathe, feel, speak, and be deeply witnessed
Companionship in learning how to be with what you’re carrying, rather than trying to get over it
Realness Rising is a space for people who
want to stop pretending they’re fine.
“I have done 2 grief circles and plan to attend more. I experienced a level of healing, acceptance and regulation that I truly hoped for but did not think possible. Randi creates a safe container to fully open yourself up to wherever the process takes you. From the prompts that helped me organize my thoughts to the exercises where I was able to see myself through the other participants and vice versa, it has been some of my most powerful experiences.”

This work is for you if:
You’re carrying heartbreak, identity shifts, longing, or a quiet ache you don’t quite know what to do with
You’re craving honest connection rather than quick fixes or platitudes
You want a place where you don’t have to explain, minimize, or clean up your experience
You’re longing for depth, permission, and real human presence
You want support that honors your pace and your truth, even when it’s messy or contradictory
“When it is led well, grief work can be so powerful and moving. This was that. Randi leads with a warm invitation to connect with your loss and longing, while facilitating a wonderful holding space within the group that feels really warm. I would do this workshop again in a heartbeat!”

The Podcast
Getting Real with Grief is the podcast that provides tools and tips for supporting yourself and others through hard times. GRWG also normalizes sharing our stories of loss while showcasing the ways that grief can become a catalyst for creating positive change in the world. Join Randi Cutler Hall on this journey as we navigate the challenges and the beauty that accompany the grieving experience.
“I love how much space Randi holds for the grieving process in others. In the grief circle I was in, her reflective presence really seemed to help people, notably myself, drop in deeper. I felt received, accepted, and seen in my grief and allowed it to be welcomed. I really got to feel the okayness of my particular flavor of grief.”

Hello Dear One,
I’m Randi.
I live for getting real with people, honoring our important life experiences, and aligning ourselves with what we are meant to do on this planet.
Grief chose me long ago for my path and calling. As far back as I can remember I have been navigating loss. The deaths of close family members, relationship losses, changes in home and community, entering into new life phases, and navigating trauma, injuries and illnesses.
Throughout my life, grief has also been my greatest teacher and when I became an adult, I set forward on a path toward getting formal training as a Marriage and Family Therapist, Relationship Coach, Grief Support Specialist and a trained Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner so that I could work from a place of integrity and confidence in my craft.

So often in my life, I was navigating a loss, change, or life transition that I knew I needed to honor and grieve. I needed support but I didn’t know where to get it. I feared that making space for these experiences would consume me - that I would get stuck in my feelings. I knew my ancestors had processes for this. Ways of honoring these collective rites of passage and individual hurts, but I didn’t have access to them. I felt weighed down by my losses, I felt my life force dimmed. I felt disconnected from myself and others and I felt like a burden to the people I love.
I know that I wasn’t the only one struggling to find support in grieving and moving through those losses.
That’s why I decided to create Realness Rising. I wanted to give other people who are navigating losses a one-stop shop for grief support so that they could have what I did not, attuned and effective guidance all along the way.
And now…
I work with clients all over the country one-on-one and in group settings. I run retreats, provide trainings for helping professionals, offer virtual programs, and create custom memorials and ceremonies to help people sanctify their relationship beginnings and endings.
On a lighter note, I have a windchime collection, I play the egg shaker, I love deep human connection, travel, and gathering in the woods around a fire. I am super creative and also love to float and swim in large bodies of water.
I’m so honored you’re here and I’m so looking forward to getting to know you more and supporting you on your journey.
