'The authentically inspiring hope Stacey's beautiful writing offers, is mined at the coalface of grief and survival. She shines much-needed light into dark spaces.' Donna Ashworth
'This is not just a book about surviving the unimaginable; it's a book about finding beauty in the wreckage and living fiercely in the shadow of loss. Stacey writes with such searing clarity that you'll feel as though she's sitting across from you, holding your hand, and telling you the truths you didn't know you needed to hear.' Bryony Gordon

'Stacey Heale...has such a muscular take on grief, and her ideas around how we live with profound loss are truly original.' Clover Stroud

Acerca del autor
Stacey Heale is a writer, speaker, curator, fashion academic and campaigner who is inspiring radically honest discussions on the lived experience of women, focusing on the realities of difficult times and how to rebuild your life from the ground up. Her academic research centres around the use of creativity to process trauma and the concept of the teenage bedroom as a site for identity construction. Stacey's 2018 TED talk focused on post-traumatic growth and the power of social media during a personal crisis. In November 2016, her husband, Delays lead singer Greg Gilbert, was diagnosed with incurable bowel cancer and died in 2021. In that time, she has campaigned for lowering the age of bowel cancer screening in the UK, research into treatments for stage IV cancer patients, access to unfunded drugs on the NHS and the financial rights of widows.
Stacey lives on the south coast of England with her two daughters and their blind toy poodle Milk.
