Fleur Hols

Fleur Hols was born in Laren, The Netherlands, in 1957, but has lived in Barcelona,Spain, for most of her adult life. She is the proud mother of two girls and grandmother of two little boys.The sudden death of her husband in the summer of 2010, changed her life completely. She didnīt know how to handle her pain or the intense sadness she felt and did not feel comfortable to talk about all the emotions that were invading her. That is why she started writing about those feelings and about what she learned while grieving him. Being alone doesnīt necesarily involve loneliness. Writing this book has not only been a powerful healing therapy for her but it was also a wake-up call;death in our world is taboo,we do not talk about it. Neither do we prepare ourselvelves for such an important transition. But death is very much part of life and we will all experience the death of a loved one sooner or later. This is why she decided to publish her book about her, often unexpected, experiences and about the reflections those arose. This book will be of help to anyone who grieves or is currently dealing with the bereaved. She now works as a certified grief coach.
