Grief Doesn't End?But You Don't Have to Face It Alone

Three years have passed since the death of G. Scott Graham's husband, Brian. Three years since that life-altering moment when everything changed. The world has moved on. Friends have stopped asking. And yet, the loss remains?quiet, persistent, woven into the fabric of everyday life.

Come As You Are: Three Years Later is not a guide to "getting over" grief?because grief isn't something to be conquered. Instead, it's a raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal exploration of what it really means to live with loss when the world expects you to have "moved on."

A Journey Through Grief, Love, and What Comes Next

Told through a collection of deeply honest essays, this book challenges society's myths about grief, exposing the platitudes, avoidance, and misplaced sympathies that leave so many grieving people feeling unseen and unheard. This is a book about grief as it really is?messy, ongoing, and deeply personal.

Inside, Graham shares:

· What to Say to Someone Who's Grieving ? And why most people get it painfully wrong.

· The Reality of Support (or Lack Thereof) ? How even well-meaning friends and family often disappear too soon.

· Grief & Emotional Intelligence ? Why developing self-awareness and empathy is crucial?for both the grieving and those who support them.

· The Truth About 'Healing' ? Why grief isn't an illness, doesn't have a timeline, and doesn't need to be "fixed."

· Personal Stories of Love & Loss ? From unexpected reminders of the past to navigating life's biggest changes alone.

Through it all, Graham weaves together personal experience, raw emotion, and sharp insight to create a book that speaks directly to those who are grieving?and those who want to support them but don't know how.

More Than a Book?A Voice for Those Who Still Grieve

If you've ever lost someone and felt like no one truly understands... If you've ever been told, "You need to move on" when your heart wasn't ready... If you've ever struggled to find the right words to comfort someone in their loss...

Come As You Are: Three Years Later is for you.

This is not just a book about grief. It is a book about being human.

Because grief doesn't end. And we shouldn't have to face it alone.

G. Scott Graham is an author, a career coach, a business coach. and a psychedelic support coach in Boston, Massachusetts.

Scott is driven to help clients follow their "true azimuth," which is different from "true north." It means coaching clients to identify the true focus of their life ? something that speaks individually to them. It means recognizing the forces that push our lives off course and adjusting to them so you get where you want to go. It means that when you are 90 years old and you look back on your life you have a sense of pride, accomplishment, and meaning ? with no regrets.

When he is not coaching people to be their very best, Scott manages a non-profit farm animal rescue. Scott participates in Tough Mudders, teaches Sun 73 Tai Chi, stand-up paddleboards with his dogs Groot and Rocket, and goes camping at State Parks throughout New England as much as possible. His daily spiritual practice focuses on anapanasati, vipassana, and metta-bhavana meditation. Scott believes service is vital to a life well-lived: he volunteers as an EMT Instructor, as a Firefighter, and as a Master Gardener in his community.

In his "free time," he writes books.
