Blooms and Butterflies: Navigating Life After Loss
Discovering Joy Again: A Compassionate Guide to Life After Loss
Blooms and Butterflies: Life After Loss is more than just a book—it’s a lifeline for those navigating the darkest days of grief. Written with deep compassion by Faris Jean, a woman who has lived through the unbearable loss of her parents in a tragic car crash at 18, followed by the heartbreak of her daughter’s suicide in 2000, this book offers a path to healing that only someone who has walked through such pain can provide.
In her raw and heartfelt words, Faris shares not just her personal story but also the profound lessons she learned about surviving, coping, and—most importantly—finding joy again. Her journey of healing turned into a desire to help others do the same, and Blooms and Butterflies is the result of that transformation.
