This is the first volume in the On the Other Side book series, brought to life by Isabella Rose and Bella Rose Healing Hands. Within its pages, you'll find tender stories, rituals, and reflections from people who have walked through loss and discovered threads of comfort, connection, and even transformation. Whether they've grieved the loss of a loved one, a relationship, their health, or a dream, these stories remind us that healing is possible and that we are never alone on this journey.

Each contributor has created something that lives beyond them. A gift of wisdom, courage, and love that becomes a guiding light for future generations.

Each chapter offers something different. A heartfelt story, a gentle practice, or an invitation to reflect. This is a book you can return to again and again, whether in the quiet of night, on a tender anniversary, or whenever your heart needs a reminder that you are not alone.

This is a beacon of hope for those experiencing their darkest days. The journeys shared within these pages carry the reminder that even in the deepest sorrow, there is hope on the other side waiting for you when you are ready.

Noemi Grace

 Noemi is a psychotherapist, channel, and author, she brings a rare combination of clinical wisdom and soul-deep knowing to her work. She is the author of An Intimate Dialogue with God: The Miraculous Power of Unconditional Self-Love, born from years of channeling messages about unconditional self-love, words she describes as not her own, arriving during meditation as something greater moving through her.

She was drawn to this project through her own profound journey with grief. After losing her father and a dear friend to cancer in the same week, and then her mother during her own cancer treatment, she knows intimately what it means to lose yourself inside loss. Her chapter offers readers a gentle but powerful invitation to look at grief not only as pain, but as an opening, a chance to heal the soul, become more present with the people we love, and find our way back to ourselves.

What makes her contribution especially meaningful is her willingness to share what she lived through in full: the isolation, the anticipatory grief, the silence she kept even from her husband of over 30 years, and the unexpected gifts that arrived when she finally reached out and asked for help. "Grief is still part of my journey," she reflects, "but it has become a powerful force that has helped me reconnect with all of me.

Tanya Leavy

Meet Tanya Levy, one of the contributing authors to On the Other Side of Grief. With over three decades of experience in counselling and mental wellness support, her writing and art has been featured in inspirational books, books on writing and self-care, and she is passionate about the healing power of everyone's own learning journey.

 

Tanya was drawn to this project because she's working on her own book on "Gardening, Growth and Grief" and saw this as a meaningful way to explore the theme of grief. Having known Bella Rose from another group, she trusted her and knew this was an important project to be part of.

 

What makes Tanya's contribution especially powerful is her personal experience with loss and the kindness of others during difficult times. "I feel I was blessed to have many people, friends and strangers, step forward to help me in my times of loss and grief," she shares. "Sometimes a positive word or act of kindness was enough to help me keep moving forward. I am hoping my words and part of my healing story can help others."

​Here's a delightful fun fact: Tanya has over 100 different plants growing in her garden, including 7 kinds of mint—chocolate, strawberry, ginger, apple, citrus, spearmint, and banana! She loves adding herbs to coffees, teas, food, bath products and tinctures.

About the Creator - Bella

On the Other Side of Grief is curated by Bella (Isabella Rose), founder of Bella Rose Healing Hands, a holistic wellness practice devoted to helping people reconnect with their authentic selves, heal emotional wounds, and rediscover the magick within to create lives filled with unconditional love, growth, and balance.

Since 2016, Bella has guided individuals and groups through healing experiences that blend creativity, spiritual reflection, and compassionate support. As a holistic wellness practitioner, life coach, author, and artist, her mission is to create sacred spaces where people feel safe, seen, accepted, and free from judgment -- something her clients consistently describe as the foundation of their healing experience.

This anthology itself was born from a sacred moment. During a creative expression therapy session, Bella received a download -- a spark of inspiration that arrived the way true guidance often does, quietly but unmistakably. And then the signs began. The name Gabriel kept appearing again and again, in the most unexpected places. Hearing it. Seeing it. Until the message became impossible to ignore. Bella took that as the divine confirmation it was -- guidance from Archangel Gabriel, the patron of writers, storytellers, and sacred communication. She followed that guidance, and On the Other Side of Grief was born.

Bella's own life has been shaped by profound loss, resilience, and transformation. In late 2016, she survived what doctors described as a fatal car accident, her aorta collapsing and tearing in ways that should not have been survivable. She knows deeply and personally what it means to grieve -- to grieve your health, your former life, your sense of self, and the people you love. It is from that place of lived experience that she brings both tenderness and truth to this project.

Her background is extensive and diverse, spanning Angel Energy Healing, Reiki, aromatherapy, breathwork, and Brain Tap Technology. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Holistic Health Sciences and has completed training in Domestic Violence Advocacy, Trauma-Informed Coaching, and Recovery Coaching. She is a Warrior Goddess Training Facilitator, Warrior Heart Facilitator, Therapeutic Art Life Coach, Master Life Coach, Angel Oracle Reader, and Intentional Creativity practitioner, among many other certifications.

Bella is also a published author and inspirational writer. She is the bestselling author of Behind the Masked Smile: A Survivor's Quest for Love, a poetic memoir, and has co-authored ten books including the bestselling 365 Book Series. Her work is featured in Soul-Hearted Living: A Year of Sacred Reflections and Affirmations for Women by Dr. Debra Reble. She has spoken as an expert on Angels and Angel Energy Healing at the Global Transformation Summit and has appeared on the Enlightened World Network, Cultivating a New Generation podcast, and co-hosted the Angel Realms Radio Show.

She believes that sharing our stories can help others feel less alone and remind us that healing, connection, and hope are always possible. On the Other Side of Grief is the answer to that belief and sacred calling.
