Author and speaker Alicia King is a leading expert on grief and grief support.  Also known as The Grief Lady, Alicia writes and speaks about the dos and don’ts of grief-what helps someone after a death, and what can unwittingly make it worse.  Using humor, her own tragic losses and a candid approach, Alicia connects with her audience and makes reaching out to those who are grieving more natural and far less intimidating. She is the grief support expert for Heart2Soul and a regular contributor to many industry publications.

Alicia King speaks from the unique perspective of one who has lost many of those close to her. Her mother's death was suspicious enough to launch ahomicide investigation and lengthy legal rollercoaster. This ultimately led toa sentence of more than 15 years for her mother's boyfriend. During the next eight years she would lose her grandmother, step-father, step-mother,and father, as well as miscarrying in her second trimester while awaiting her mother's boyfriend's trial.

Ms. King currently lives in Tennessee with her husband Dan and their two children.  She's a world-class worrier, earning her the nickname, The Queen of Concern.  She is also an award-winning songwriter, writing mostly for film and TV.
