Kate Doerge Presents Reimagining Grief

“Reimagining Grief is a deeply personal yet practical guide for anyone navigating the aftermath of devastating loss. Kate doesn't offer easy answers— she gives us something far more valuable: her own story, and proof that a life can be rebuilt, not in spite of sorrow, but through it.”  

— Belle Burden, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage 

Every single one of us experiences grief. Author and grief coach Kate Doerge offers five actions that can help ground us when we feel out of control, lift us when we're depleted, and help us process the pain of loss.  

Kate Doerge lost her father to heart failure, her mother in a car accident five days before Christmas, and her sixteen-year-old daughter, Penny, to complications from a rare genetic condition. Following Penny’s death, Kate knew she had a choice: She could lose herself to a grief so powerful she might not come back from it, or she could find another way through. Drawing from her own experience, the latest research, and conversations with others who have faced devastating loss, Kate offers some light and healing in the midst of darkness. Reimaging Grief includes guidance on finding your own path through grief, what post-traumatic growth really looks like, turning pain into purpose, and much more.
