About this listen

How does one accept a gift from death when death is the very enemy that took your loved one away?

Death has come bearing gifts for me more than once. Tightly bound in grief, these gifts are hard to unwrap, yet it is only in the unwrapping that we reveal the lesson and ease the grief. Our burden becomes lighter, and our soul expands. Can you prepare for such gifts, or is it only in hindsight that grief can mend our broken hearts?

Chronicling the deaths of a lover, my father, and my only son, A Series of Surrenders is not only a love letter to them, but it is also a lesson in making friends with grief and learning to love again. Dive into the depths of grief and the hope of what is possible when a broken heart repairs and a soul expands in lessons of love.

Such a great telling of love and loss in all its colours.
Debra takes you on a journey of magic, sorrow and sparkle.
I found myself holding my breath to make sure I did not miss a moment. I laughed, I cried, I was inspired and held.
This book is deeply moving and raw. Debra welcomes you to feel all the feels without judgment, then manages to walk you through the cold rigid darkness into the sunshine, never once letting go of your hand. Her story telling is captivating and honest and arrives at exactly the right time.

Without love, there is no grief

Wow!
This is both a heartbreaking and awe-inspiring journey of personal lessons in grief and big life loss so elegantly told but shamelessly raw at the same time. It is a read that unapologetically encourages the reader to feel the flow of pleasure and pain from beginning to end.
