The question I pose as the basis for this book is this- What if we normalize grief in such a way that we acknowledge and support grievers who have lost relationships, jobs, health and not only when someone dies? Imagine giving a card to a friend after the loss of a job, or when they were denied a promotion they worked really hard for. How radical that would be but also how cathartic! In order to better understand and manage grief we must first normalize grieving both for the living and the dead. I know this means that it takes some of the mystery out of grief and grieving. This is an important development in managing and understanding grief. I will address grief by unpacking and defining it beyond just the physical death of a loved one.
