Today, we’re expanding the Empathy Support System with new resources grounded in compassion, mindfulness, and the simple act of being present with what’s hard. We’re honored to welcome Eve Lewis, a renowned meditation teacher and mental-health coach, as Empathy’s Mindfulness Expert.

With more than a decade of experience, and as the former Director of Meditation at Headspace, you might recognize Eve’s voice from Radio Headspace, Netflix’s Guide to Sleep, or the Headspace | Waze mindful navigation experience. She’ll help shape our growing library of meditations, audio guides, and tools for navigating loss.

Eve’s practices will appear across Empathy Loss Support, offering steady guidance when it’s needed most.

When pregnancy loss isn’t acknowledged, the workplace feels it: through disengagement, burnout, and rising turnover costs.

Empathy’s Pregnancy Loss Support extends care beyond traditional benefits, helping employees feel supported through loss — not left to manage it alone.

When open enrollment season comes around, estate planning doesn’t always make the list. But why?

In our recent In Good Company virtual event, Hebba Youssef, CPO at Workweek and Founder of "I Hate It Here” newsletter, explored why it deserves a place alongside every other benefit.

We review our benefits, adjust our coverage, and protect our families financially, but most of us are missing the plan that ties it all together.

Your estate plan fills the gaps a 401(k) or life insurance policy can’t; carrying your voice forward, protecting your legacy, and giving your loved ones clarity when they need it most.

Read the recap to see why estate planning deserves a seat at the benefits table: https://empthy.co/3Lkho2V

A loss unseen by others can still affect those who feel it, physically and emotionally. When companies acknowledge pregnancy loss as a legitimate reason for leave, they’re reinforcing a culture of compassion and trust.

According to our 2025 annual research report, The Grief Tax, nearly 80% of bereaved employees considered quitting and over 75% feared losing their job after a loss, with work-related impacts lasting an average of 16 months.

With Empathy, much of the emotional and practical burden is eased, providing guidance through the steps ahead so parents can focus on grieving, healing, and moving forward.

For families, this support offers validation. For companies, it builds resilience. For all of us, it’s a step towards building more compassionate workplaces.

We asked, you answered.

This October gave voice to what so many have been feeling: the conversations not being had, and the support that isn’t felt.

That led us to one truth: workplaces could and should do more to support employees through pregnancy and infant loss, a reality affecting one in four pregnancies and countless families beyond that.

Despite family health and parental benefits ranking among today’s top workplace priorities, meaningful support for this experience remains largely absent. The result: a profound gap, where up to 25% of parents face anxiety, depression, or PTSD without the care they deserve.

That’s why today, we’re proud to introduce Pregnancy Loss Support, an expansion of Empathy’s Loss Support product.

Because pregnancy loss is just as professional as it is personal, this expanded offering includes:
💜 Tailored step-by-step care plans for the emotional and practical challenges of loss
💜 A library of resources shaped with Dr. Jessica Zucker, supporting every stage of the experience
💜 Audio guides, meditations, and a private journaling space to process the wide range of emotions that follow loss
💜 Real-time access to trained Care Managers for comfort, guidance, and practical help

For the thousands of employers already offering Empathy’s bereavement care to their workforce, this expanded support will be included as part of that benefit.

We’re proud to introduce Dr. Jessica Zucker, Empathy’s Pregnancy Loss Expert, who helped guide the experience and content for our Pregnancy Loss Support Program.

With over 15 years of clinical experience, Dr. Zucker brings unparalleled expertise and compassion to her role, helping Empathy provide evidence-based guidance, emotional support, and practical resources to employees navigating pregnancy and infant loss.

Her work reminds us that pregnancy loss is as much a professional experience as it is a personal one, and that supporting employees through it builds trust, resilience, and a culture of care.

Every single week, about 2.6 million full-time U.S. employees on average miss work because of illness or injury.

Behind that number are millions of people navigating uncertainty, stress, and recovery, and employers facing the heavy toll that absence takes on business productivity.

Today, Empathy is proud to introduce our new product, Leave Support, to transform how people navigate time away from, and their return to, the workplace.

Launching first through our collaboration with MetLife, Leave Support brings technology to the heart of recovery. By combining automated routines, smart reminders, and adaptive guidance with instant access to human care, Empathy helps employees heal with structure and purpose, rebuilding confidence and routine throughout their recovery. For employers, it means smoother transitions back to work, fewer disruptions, and a stronger foundation for wellbeing and productivity at scale.

Leave Support represents the next step in Empathy’s mission to transform how people are supported through life’s toughest moments–from loss to legacy to leave.

💜 is a reminder that healing doesn’t follow a timeline.
After pregnancy loss, symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression can linger well beyond the first month, with many still feeling the effects many months later. Our research shows that the emotional toll often outlasts the physical recovery, underscoring how vital ongoing support and open conversation truly are.

Yesterday was National Pet Memorial Day, a reminder that the grief of losing a pet is real, profound, and often overlooked. 🐾

At Empathy, we know pets are family. That’s why our team came together to honor the companions, past and present, who have filled our lives with unconditional love, comfort, and joy. Their memories remind us why we do what we do: building support systems that honor every kind of loss and the full spectrum of the human experience.

We should be thinking about how grief affects our employees, colleagues, and organizations all year round. Yet Grief Awareness Day gives us an opportunity to pause, reflect, and dedicate time to understanding its impact.

We cannot fix what we do not know. But by shining a light on grief in the workplace, we can begin to change how it is understood and how people are cared for.

📖Share this resource with your leader, your team, or take 5 minutes with it yourself: https://empthy.co/45UzRtl

Once you put on the glasses to grief, you won’t be able to take them off.
