What made me create this?

A woman with long dreadlocks and colorful tattoos is sitting on rocks in a lush green forest. She is wearing a black dress and appears to be looking to her left with a peaceful expression. Bright sunlight filters through the trees, illuminating her and the surrounding foliage.

My eldest daughter Zoe passed away at 18. For a long time I didn't think I was going to survive it. Some days it felt like breathing shards of glass.

I know now that we can do heartbreakingly hard things. And not just survive them. We can alchemize them. Turn the anguish into something that actually deepens us.

This guide has some tools that helped me. The prompts, the reflections, the honest stuff nobody says out loud. The roller coaster, the feeling of being completely unmoored… none of it is too big or too strange to bring here.

You're allowed to grieve. And you're allowed to find your way back to joy, even if that feels impossible right now.

What You’ll Find In the Workbook

Two wellness sheets titled 'Body Scan' and 'Who Am I?' on a white surface with a shadow of a plant to the right.
  • You’ll find journaling prompts and self-reflection exercises

  • Gentle, down-to-earth practices (including “Dirga Pranayama”) that anchor you into the present moment whenever grief rears up like a tidal wave.

  • Goal setting, because you’re still allowed to dream and plan for your future, even when you’re hurting.

  • Simple, powerful ways to reset that anxious mind and reconnect with your body with grounding through the senses- even when the world feels upside down.

  • Truth-bomb quotes and reflections, affirmations and encouragement that remind you it’s okay to be a giant, grieving mess and a radiant soul all at once.

I won’t promise it’ll be easy, but I will promise you’re not alone. Healing can look really messy- tears on your pillow at 2 a.m., a heart that races with anxiety, an unwillingness to eat anything but cereal for a week. That’s the real deal, my friend. But it’s in the naming, facing, and feeling of all that hurt that true healing unfolds.

Let this workbook hold your hand and remind you:
Breathe in the love, breathe out the fear.
And together, we’ll navigate the in-between.
