Dear Drew: Creating a Life Bigger Than Grief

Grief doesn’t have to be the end of your story.

Healing is possible. This powerful promise lies at the heart of Dear Drew: Creating a Life Bigger Than Grief, Melissa Hull’s transformative guide to healing from profound loss.

When Hull lost her four-year-old son in a drowning accident, she sank into guilt, unable to imagine a way to move forward. As she slowly rebuilt her life, she realized a critical truth: Healing is a choice that requires active participation.

In this powerful book, Hull shares the tools and practices that helped her navigate overwhelming pain, release shame and self-blame, and create a life of purpose. With deep compassion and fiercely personal storytelling, she shows readers it’s possible to integrate grief and grow alongside it, and to build a meaningful future while still honoring the past.

Whatever your loss, no matter the depth of your sorrow, you are worthy and capable of healing. Dear Drew is an invitation to discover resilience, growth, and even joy—in a life where loss and love can coexist.

“Anyone navigating the tumultuous waters of grief should read this profoundly moving book, as it will undoubtedly help on their healing journey.”—Dr. Robbie Motter, founder and CEO, Global Society for Female Entrepreneurs
