About: The Life Reentry Institute is a grief therapy practice that provides a supportive social structure to the client who is in the process of shifting from a “waiting room” mindset to one of reentry. It supports individuals in understanding the many layers of their grief and corrects the false misconception that grief is a process of indefinite mourning. The Life Reentry model does not replace old models of grief. Instead, it is the next step in the journey to healing and new life after loss from death, divorce, job loss, addiction dependence, and so on. The organization offers face-to-face training or a 12 week online training course for those that prefer a virtual experience.
The Life ReEntry Institute is a grief therapy practice with a mission to remove the negative stigmas from suffering.
Founder and CEO, Christina Rasmussen, started developing The Life ReEntry Institute in 2017 to provide the tools and support to educate others about the grieving process and change any negative misconceptions. She is the bestselling author of Second Firsts: Live, Laugh, and Love Again, and her work on grief and mourning has been featured on ABC News, NPR, The White House Blog, and MariaShriver.com.
Christina’s vision is to integrate The Life ReEntry Institute’s methodology across social work and psychological academic curriculums in universities, counseling centers, hospice bereavement centers, hospitals, and in churches everywhere by 2025.
With this goal in mind, Christina needs guidance and advice from professionals outside of her personal network to grow her business and find new opportunities to share the mission behind The Life ReEntry Institute.
Almost instantly after creating a company profile and posting details about the advisor opportunities, Christina received over 80+ high-caliber candidates interested in joining her advisory board. Using AdvisoryCloud platform, she was able to filter through the applicants and narrow her selection to 10 potential advisors. After conducting interviews, she chose four distinguished executives, ranging from backgrounds in finance, healthcare, psychology, and marketing.
“When selecting my advisory board, I looked for applicants that were not only smart and successful business people, but I wanted to be sure they were also thoughtful and compassionate as well. A great board is made of people with incredible careers that want to give back and help other companies succeed, and be a part of something they believe in," said Christina Rasmussen.
With her advisory board successfully built in under three months, Christina is now moving forward with scheduling quarterly meetings through AdvisoryCloud. Focused on a long-term strategy, the board is helping Christina achieve her mission to make modernized grief therapy accessible to everyone.
The Life ReEntry’s advisory board is comprised of advisors from from Bard Medical, GE Healthcare, J.P. Morgan, and Otsuka Pharmaceutical.
“Every advisor on my board is amazing, and our quarterly meetings are focused, productive and on point. They believe in my mission and are opening doors to opportunities that I wouldn't have found on my own. My experience using AdvisoryCloud is far better than I could have ever imagined," said Christina.
