“Adult sibling conflict and the care of an older person”

Discover clearer ways to move through loss and conflict with two recorded webinars from Best Life Counselling: “Disentangling Grief with Adult Sibling Conflict” and “Disentangling Grief and Conflict in the Care of an Older Person.”

Why these recordings matter

  • Grief rarely follows a single path. When it intersects with family tensions—between adult siblings or around caring for an older relative—it can become confusing, isolating and fraught with unresolved emotions.

  • These sessions unpack the emotional dynamics that amplify conflict during bereavement and caregiving, giving you practical understanding and tools to respond more calmly and confidently.

  • Our webinars are based on Best Life Counselling’s decades of professional learnings, research and lived experience interviews.

What you will learn

  • The nature of grief: how grief shows up differently for each person and how it can fuel misunderstanding and reactivity.

  • The mechanics of conflict: common triggers, escalation patterns and why well-meaning family members sometimes hurt each other.

  • Common emotions you may experience: sadness, guilt, shame, anger, envy and relief — how they influence behaviour and decision-making.

  • Practical strategies: communication approaches, boundary-setting, conflict de-escalation techniques and ways to manage expectations and responsibilities.

  • Moving forward: steps to repair relationships where possible, or to protect your emotional wellbeing when repair isn’t feasible.

  • Family dynamics and roles we play as siblings and how conflict can become entrenched.

  • The sadness we feel when we compare ourselves to other families

  • Ways to hold our integrity during a very difficult phase of our lives

  • Faith perspectives and spirituality

Unique format — role plays to cement learning

Each webinar includes role-play demonstrations by the hosts that model real conversations: difficult sibling negotiations; family meetings about care decisions; managing hot moments when grief and obligations collide. Seeing these interactions acted out makes the strategies practical and easier to apply in your own situation.

Who will benefit

  • Adult siblings struggling to navigate grief after a loss.

  • Family members juggling caregiving responsibilities and the emotional fallout that comes with them.

  • Anyone seeking practical ways to communicate, set boundaries and preserve wellbeing during emotionally charged times.

  • Professionals working with bereaved families who want clearer, practical frameworks.

How the recordings work

  • We have combined these on-demand webinars into one accessible workbooks with links to the webinar recordings - you can keep forever and watch at your own pace.

  • Clear, concise teaching combined with lived‑realistic role plays.

  • Actionable takeaways you can begin using immediately in conversations and care planning.
