'The friend you need when you're grieving - full of heart and hope' PHILIPPA PERRY

When Cariad Lloyd was just fifteen, she became the person-whose-dad-had-died; a mess of emotions and questions. She turned to the Five Stages of Grief model for guidance, but found its framework of loss was hard to reconcile with her messy and non-linear experience of grief.
In this wise and witty guide to grieving, Cariad shares her road map – a collection of years of profound insights from experts and guests featured on her podcast, Griefcast – to remind us that you cannot do grief wrong.
Wise, warm and downright funny, this book will show you that you're not alone - and how to find peace on your grief journey.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In You Are Not Alone, actor, comedian and podcaster Cariad Lloyd seeks to assure bereaved people – or ‘griefsters’ – of just that. In her approachable, often even funny way, Lloyd, who herself lost her father when she was just a teenager, also makes a valiant case for freeing grieving people from the pernicious idea that they might be doing it wrong – too slowly, too loudly, too unpredictably. Harnessing research on grief, the history of mourning and her own story, woven throughout, as well as the stories of guests on her award-winning podcast Griefcast, the result is frank and refreshing. It is sure to help many people facing their own losses or trying to be there for loved ones dealing with bereavement. And it is, ultimately, a hopeful book, too.
