Published: 2024

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 back. 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 then later in life as a partner and mother. With vulnerability and honesty, Jill shares the invaluable lessons she’s learned from grief, and how these lessons have helped her find a path back to joy.
