Carrying the Weight is more than a book about grief. It’s a beacon of hope
When i first got the book, i didn’t know how it was going to help me, but the book has taught me ways to speak to someone that is grieving. I never could formulate the right words but now i can. Also, I will be gifting this book to members of my family since we have had some recent losses. I’m sure this book will help us heal and understand that we are not alone! Thank you Portia Hall Turner for sharing your journey!
I absolutely enjoyed reading this book and it came at the perfect time for me being that I am grieving at this time. It was very helpful to read that someone else experienced the same feelings and emotions that I am currently facing. Very well written with an organized thought process. Looking forward to more books from the author!
I love the helpful questions throughout out the chapters that allows you to tap in and answer those much needed questions to journey to your healing.
