Meet Tiwanda
Tiwanda R. Smith is the founder of M.O.M. Circle™—Mothers Overcoming Mourning—and a compassionate guide for women learning to live, speak, and write after profound loss.
Her work was shaped by the loss of her son to suicide and by a conviction that bereaved mothers deserve more than instructions to “be strong.” Through writing experiences, books, conversations, and speaking, Tiwanda creates spaces where grief is honored, stories are welcomed, and hope can return without being rushed.
She brings warmth, honesty, faith, and lived understanding to every room she enters.
Held in hope,Tiwanda R. Smith
A private space to name your next step
30-Minute Clarity Conversation
Sometimes you do not need every answer—you need a compassionate listener, a focused conversation, and help seeing the next gentle step more clearly.
- Clarify the question, idea, or decision weighing on you.
- Talk through your story, project, program, or next move.
- Leave with one clear, practical action you can take.
This is a supportive, non-clinical conversation. It is not therapy, counseling, crisis care, or medical treatment.
