Graceful Woman Warrior is the culmination of a promise I made to my late niece, Terri Luanna da Silva, when she whispered to me, “I think I’m dying. I want you to tell people.” Promising to publish her thought-provoking blog of the same name, I co-authored her posthumous memoir about mindfully living and dying with metastatic breast cancer with Terri's ten-year-old daughter. A bold blueprint for navigating the sacred cycles of life, death, and living beyond, our story inspires readers to awaken to their lives and conjure and create the life they envision. Grace Lessons, an accompanying workshop based on Terri’s transformational teachings and my work as a grief and loss specialist, takes you on a transformative journey to discover that heart space where grief and resilience live together, shining a light into the darkness of grief—a light of hope, healing, remembrance, & meaning-making.
