Griefhab

Griefhab Psychologist, Coach, & Founder of Griefhab I’m Samantha Ruth, and I’m a Psychologist, Speaker, Podcast Host of The Be Ruthless Show, and Best Selling Author.

I help people around the world turn their pain into their power by guiding them to be their true selves not who they think they need to be, by embracing their differences, and by living life on their own terms. My mission is to change the way the world views both grief and mental health, so people can openly speak about whatever issues they have and get the help they not only need but deserve without fear of judgment, labels, and repercussions. I am the proud founder of Griefhab, a 24/7 community open to anyone who has experienced a loss. After personally living through this, I realized just how much support I needed on a daily basis. I vowed to create these services so that others would have more support available in their times of need. In my free time, you can find me and my pups, Sassy and Dallas, on one of our outdoor adventures. We love living in Colorado and never miss an opportunity to explore our beautiful surroundings. Music fuels my soul, family means everything to me, and honoring my late husband, Jim, and making him proud gives my life daily purpose. Contact me to learn how to work with me individually or to learn how to have me as a keynote speaker at your event or organization at sam@samantharuth.com

When the NFL starts sharing 988 💔

Because every life matters!

The NFL sent a memo to all teams Friday, asking them to hold a moment of silence Sunday as part of the pre-game ceremonies in memory of the late Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland.

The moment of silence will be followed by a message read in all NFL stadiums that says, If you or someone you know is struggling or needs emotional support, please call or text 988. The Su***de and Crisis Lifeline is available 24-7 to help.

24 years old. With a girlfriend frantically contacting police after receiving a goodbye text.

We have to do better. It’s Men’s Health Awareness Month. This is why.

Men need places to feel. To heal. To not be ok.

The world can attack the Cowboys for their season this year. What else do these men have going on off the field?

24 - some of these players are still growing up! In front of the entire world and all of the critiques and judgments.

Injuries -
Losses on the field -
Whatever each individual has going on personally….
And now this.

It’s too much.

Sending love to the entire Kneeland family, the Dallas Cowboys Family, the NFL - and to everyone ever impacted by su***de.

Please don’t struggle alone. Griefhab is here for you 24/7, as well as 988 ❤️

S**t Happens Before the Shift Happens.

I woke up to a message from Christian McElwee Sr. about BMOR Offshore Racing’s Boat. They’ve worked all year to compete for this World Title -

and life is lifeing. Please support and consider getting some of their swag. Their mission and message matter - and you’ll definitely see them back out next year.

They didn’t turn around and go home. They’re cheering everyone else on and showing their support - because that’s who they are!!

BMOR will be at Griefhab’s 3rd Annual Healing Together Through the Holidays next month - so get your tickets and join us!!

Grief comes in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes it’s the end of a season (or life) long dream that everyone has worked tirelessly on for eons. It always deserves being honored -

Sending our partners and family at BMOR all of our love ❤️ ❤️❤️

You just sit in a chair all day.

I may not do heavy physical labor, but what I do is mentally exhausting. I currently have 4 active cases involved with child protective services. I have 2 active custody cases and I don’t want to count how many marital / divorce couples I’m seeing.

That doesn’t get to my clients dealing with grief, depression, ptsd, suicidal thoughts…..

I do anything but just sit in a chair all day! Mental Health Matters!!

No one sees the blood, sweat, and tears that have gone into building Griefhab. No one knows the hours I spend behind the scenes - outside of actually working with the people who desperately need our services.

Thank you BMOR Offshore Racing for believing in what we do. Seeing our logo on your boat - with your positive mission and messages, makes it so worth it!!

We’re so proud to be partnering with BMOR Offshore Racing. Go crush it at Burning Man National Races in Key West this week!! We’re cheering you on all over the US style 🙌❤️
