Different after You

Rediscovering Yourself and Healing after Grief or Trauma

A life-affirming process that provides transformative support

No one who lives and loves will be immune from grief and trauma. While this suffering is universal, living through a devastating event often leaves people feeling alone and even alienated. Michele Neff Hernandez experienced this when her 39-year-old husband died after being hit by a car while riding his bicycle. Her most transformative realization was that grief changes us. There is no going back or bucking up. Life is now different.

In Different After You, Michele presents easy-to-digest steps based on her work with thousands of widowed people and her innovative grief support programs. Through this process, anyone who has experienced life-altering trauma will discover a map for grieving what they've lost, identifying what they've gained, and learning to embrace the person they've become.

Understanding more the person you were will never be the same until you choose to move forward in your grief.

I liked how the book kept you listening to find out more about the story of grief and it’s not linear.

Not the best book on grief I have read

Not very good, two chapters about running seemed much, and not enough about dealing with the aftermath in my opinion, basically just about her new relationship
