Sooner or later, we all experience grief and can find ourselves feeling shattered and heartbroken. The question: Is it possible to survive and thrive after the death of someone we love?

Moving beyond grief after losing a loved one is possible. Madonna Treadway knows this first-hand: she experienced the childhood loss of both her parents when she was only eight years old. As an adult, she discovered that she never processed her grief and that its lingering effects had a hold on her life. She had a limited connection to her emotions and struggled with intimate relationships. Something inside felt empty and disconnected. She knew there was more to this life.Madonna entered therapy and explored the long-buried pain of her multiple losses. Years of rich and meaningful discovery followed.

Grief recovery tools are waiting for you: After much research and inner exploration, Madonna began to see patterns in her healing. She discovered that grief recovery did not happen in stages, but as movements along an upward spiral. In Six Healing Questions, A Gentle Path to Healing Childhood Loss of a Parent, Madonna will travel up that spiral with you, offering tools and insight along the way as she offers answers to the questions: How do I Become Aware? How do I Get Curious? How do I Dive In? How do I Seek Resources? How do I Forgive (Myself and Others)? How do I Release (and Repeat as Needed)?

Overcoming grief is a journey: If you’ve ever wondered if grief recovery or moving beyond loss is possible, then you’ve already taken the first step. Six Healing Questions explores how to heal from any kind of loss, helps with grieving, and ultimately shows how overcoming grief can uncover a more whole and resilient you.
