When Jill was four, her father died. He went to play his weekly game of five-a-side football, had a heart attack and never came home. In 2017, in cruelly similar circumstances, Jill's partner Matt went to a gym class, suffered a cardiac arrest and never came home. These two tragic events frame Jill's story in 'A Life Reimagined' as she explores how she dealt with profound grief as a child and teenager and then to her later in life as a partner and mother.

When Matt died, Jill committed to processing her grief in ways she hadn't attempted before: she had to rebuild her father, recreate that grief and lose him all over again. She explored the physiology of grief, attended grief retreats, read every book out there and underwent extensive therapy. But Jill knows that not everyone has the time, money or inclination to do the same. This book is Jill's space to share what she has discovered and learnt.
