Synopsis

When Love Meets Grief is a beautiful compilation of interactions from nearly three decades of Kelly Grosklags’ career working in oncology, end-of-life care and grief work. This book speaks to the possibility of living with hope and solace regardless of life's circumstances. Kelly’s messages have universal appeal, offering comfort to anyone searching for reassurance, insights and peace.

The book's heartfelt stories explore themes of gratitude, hope, courage, living in the moment, honoring grief, forgiveness and embracing love as a healing medicine. Kelly, an intuitive practitioner, speaker, and esteemed therapist, uses her deep reserves of compassion and wisdom to support those suffering from illness, trauma, and loss.

She has worked for close to 30 years in medical settings, a private psychotherapy practice, and as a keynote speaker at multiple conferences across the globe. Her specialties include palliative care, hospice, oncology and other life-changing illnesses, as well as grief. All of these encounters have further developed her clinical skills, allowing her to offer profound insights and comfort to individuals, audiences, and groups that she is honored to work with. When Love Meets Grief is both compelling and transformative, and was created out of Kelly’s desire to share the wisdom she has accumulated throughout her sacred career. As well, the book reflects her own healing work from the trauma of losing her mother at age eleven.

She draws on the lessons from all of these experiences to empower others to live with meaning and courage in the face of life's adversity. Kelly’s beliefs are that love and grief are mirrors of each other, and that love does not end even after death. These concepts are beautifully woven throughout this reflective book. The pages are filled with insights that remind us of our eternal connection to those we miss most, and the enduring power of love. Her wish for readers is that they will feel less alone and experience the very sharp edges of grief soften, while feeling moments of hope throughout each chapter.
