The Grief Lounge

​Hello, my name is Shyloe Ajayi. I am a wife, a daughter, a fashionista, a grief coach, a Christian counselor, and a self-made nutritionist. I was born and raised in Northern California to my amazing parents, Woodrow and Leslie. I am a Howard University alumni.
My husband (Josh) and I had the privilege of going into the full-time ministry after college and serving God as missionaries in Africa.

Although, my life has been amazing and fruitful, I have experienced much pain and grief throughout the years. From the time I was 8 years old, the world seemed unpredictable to me when my cousin Mary died from cancer. By the age of 15, my eldest sister Rosalind died unexpectedly at our annual family camping retreat(2007). When I reached 22 years old, my father died suddenly(2014) on his way to the hospital. A year later(2015), my grandfather passed away. In 2019, I sadly lost my grandmother unexpectedly in her home. By 2022, my mother’s health worsened and severely declined. She died on December 26th. In between those years, I lost uncles, aunties, pets and friends. However, after losing my mom recently, I couldn’t keep quiet or silent about my grief. I had to share and speak about my pain and experiences. I told myself that I have gone through too much grief to not give it a voice. I needed an outlet and a platform to express my pain and to help others with their grief. This is how the grief lounge was born.
