Hosted by Reimagine, In honor of Grace Livingston
Loss: A Pathway for Turning Pain Into Purpose Through Music

Thu. May 21

5:00pm - 6:15pm

This is a digital event. You should receive information in your ticket or from the host about how to join online.

Loss: A Music Pathway for Turning Pain>>Purpose, anchored by the songs of Reimagine co-founder and musician Brad Wolfe. Join us to find your own music through the hard parts of life.

What happens when we channel life’s challenges through music, reflection, and community?

This spring, Loss unfolds as a series of three live virtual events. Each gathering is rooted in an original song, a short musical film, and guided reflection inside the Reimagine Platform. 

The series continues with Cover You in Flowers, inspired by a true story of love and devotion in the face of terminal illness, following Grace Livingston, a Reimagine volunteer who, after losing her mother to cancer, developed a desire to help others face death more openly. She later faced her own terminal diagnosis and, together with her fiancé Ben Einstein, chose to marry.

Their story invites us to consider how we love when time is limited and the small, intentional acts that carry meaning when words aren’t enough. It explores the small rituals and practices that can help us face the hardest parts of life with presence and care, and support our emotional well-being in the face of loss.

The evening begins with the debut of the Cover You in Flowers music video, followed by a live conversation with Brad Wolfe and Ben, sharing the story behind the song.

Together, they’ll reflect on love, caregiving, and the role of music—and what it meant to walk alongside Grace through the end of her life and beyond.

Inside your Reimagine reflection space, you’ll be guided to honor someone you love, explore your relationship to loss and impermanence, and identify meaningful acts of care, ritual, or expression you can begin right now. You’ll also be invited to contribute to a communal playlist of songs that bring you closer to that love.

About Brad Wolfe & the Moon

Brad Wolfe & the Moon is the musical project of Reimagine co-founder Brad Wolfe. His music has been shaped by a lifelong reckoning with mortality and has led him to share stages with artists such as Sara Bareilles, Dispatch, and members of Dave Matthews Band and Counting Crows.

The songs for this series come from the upcoming EP, Loss. This collection is shaped by intergenerational memory, personal grief, and years of conversations hosted by Reimagine.

The songs featured in this series include:

• Why Wait

• Cover You in Flowers

• Sara’s Got a Sunbeam

These songs provide the soundtrack and the springboard for our shared experience.
