ASHES, Grace, AND THE WOMAN I BECAME: A Guide to Healing from Trauma and Grief by Jackie Agnew

When Jackie Agnew lost her stepdaughter Emily to addiction, her father, her father-in-law, and then her husband Steve in a devastating house fire, her world didn’t just break – it disappeared in one impossible year.

In the ashes of everything she lost, Jackie slowly learned how to breathe again, rebuild again, and become a woman she never expected – one shaped by heartbreak, but not defined by it.

Ashes, Grace, and the Woman I Became is a hand extended to anyone trying to survive the unthinkable offering insights into Jackie’s journey along with prompts and possible practices to support you through your own.

It is proof that even when life burns to the ground, something fierce and beautiful can still rise.
