Suzi Evans lives with her husband Mick on their sheep property in South Australia’s Murray Mallee. Being dry mallee farmers, they thought they knew resilience well, but their lives took two almighty tragic blows within 18 months, leaving both struggling to find meaning and purpose. After much soul searching, Suzi trained as an instructor and coach in the mental health arena and established her own business. Her work is now accredited by Suicide Prevention Australia.

In this raw and powerful retelling of her journey through gut-wrenching grief, Suzi shares her story of the trauma of losing her son, Muzz, to suicide. Through her heartbreaking experience, Suzi has gained the strength and resilience to help others make sense of theirs, offering a compassionate and genuine guide to navigating grief, reassuring readers that they are not alone. She provides invaluable tools, from positive psychology to mental health first aid, and reminds readers to choose themselves, because every step towards healing begins with a choice.

If you are grieving the loss of a loved one or pet, the loss of a relationship, the loss of time due to illness or estrangement, or the loss of the life you thought you were going to live, this book is for you.
