Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781409185406 Publisher: Orion Spring Overview Beyond Goodbye is a compassionate, practical companion for anyone navigating loss. Written by leading grief and bereavement expert Zoë Clark-Coates, this brand new paperback blends heartfelt personal insight with clear, actionable guidance for the bereaved. It examines the many faces of grief, from losing a partner or parent to the heartbreak of miscarriage and child loss, and includes a unique 60-day support structure to help readers move through their darkest, most disorientating days towards renewed hope, healing and lasting strength, at their own pace, whenever comfort and guidance are needed most. About the Book Grief is one of life's few certainties, yet many of us feel unprepared and utterly alone when it arrives. In Beyond Goodbye, Zoë Clark-Coates draws on her own profound experience of loss, alongside years of professional bereavement work, to create a guide that is both deeply human and genuinely useful for readers at any stage of mourning. The book is split into two clear sections: the first explores the different types of loss we may face across a lifetime, dismantling common myths about grief and explaining why mourning rarely follows a tidy, linear path. The second section offers a practical 60-day framework of daily reflections, prompts and coping strategies, giving readers structure and comfort during the most disorientating period after a loss, without ever feeling clinical or impersonal. Throughout, Zoë answers the questions grieving people ask most often, from how to cope with anniversaries, birthdays and unexpected triggers, to how to communicate needs honestly to friends, colleagues and family. She also dedicates considerable space to those supporting someone bereaved, offering clear guidance on what to say, what to avoid, and how to be genuinely present for a grieving loved one rather than offering empty platitudes.
