Working Through Profound Loss with Hope and Purpose
Book • 2023
In 'Finding the Words,' Colin Campbell shares his deeply personal story of losing his two teenage children to a drunk driver.
He challenges common wisdom on grieving, which often suggests that the process is private and mysterious, and that the pain is too great to be expressed in words.
Instead, Campbell provides an alternative path that is active and vocal, emphasizing the importance of community support, mourning rituals, and expressing grief to honor loved ones.
The book is full of practical advice on how to survive the aftermath of loss and live more fully while holding loved ones close.
