Publisher's summary
Born and raised in a loving home, Trudi seemed to have the perfect life. Until one day when she was 11 years old, a tragic death in the family changed the trajectory of her life forever. As if that wasn't enough, further devastation crashed through Trudi's life, leaving her without any close family by the time she reached her mid-30s. She was all alone.
What follows is an inspiring transformation, as Trudi built a new life by going where her heart and her feet lead her—from country music concerts in Nashville and hockey games in Canada, to thermal springs in Iceland and the legendary Camino de Santiago.
Adventure After is Trudi's story of how she faced her grief throughout the years. With her adventurous spirit, she searched the world to discover what mattered the most to her and found her way back to herself.
A compelling story for those who have experienced the loss of a dear family member(s). An honest, raw look at the author's resilience in building a full life after she lost her family.
Trudi is a life-after-grief coach. Her superpower is her ability to let you be seen and heard by listening deeply and tapping into her intuition. She loves to connect women back to their inner power so they can be their best selves. She lives in Colorado with her husband and their cherished dogs.

At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let's face it: Most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

Story
At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let's face it: Most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

I'm hitting the road." Packing what she needed, Norma took off on an unforgettable cross-country journey with three professional nomads - her retired son, Tim; his wife, Ramie; and their standard poodle, Ringo.

Incredible book!
Trudi’s stories through grief helped me to understand the feelings associated with loss that I’ve experienced in my own life and provide perspective. It was validating! Worth the read!

Talk about vulnerability! 😳
In a world where, dare I say MOST, people hide their true selves and their true stories, it’s refreshing to hear someone be and speak truth. Especially, as it relates to loss and grief.
I often hear these topics colored with loads of optimism and positivity, careful not to “trigger” one’s sadness or anger or deep hurt. But if the intention is to actually move through the pain and find yourself again, sometimes laying it all out plain and simple, raw and real, is the best way.
And this author does just that.
Remer illustrates with her own life experience how the process of grief doesn’t happen on a certain timeline and may express itself in the most peculiar and/or destructive ways.
And it just is.
That’s the essence of this book…
And great for anyone who needs to see that there is a way through, to discover yourself again.

Authentic and vulnerable
The author speaks her truth with insight and vulnerability. She boldly and unapologetically tells how the numerous losses of beloved family members over the course of her life have challenged her to her core. But instead of letting these tragedies permanently embitter her, she chose the long and arduous path of healing. Her journey to shape a hopeful and peaceful future for herself is inspiring. Even if the reader has not herself had similar experiences of repeated grief, the author does a good job of educating on how to appropriately respond to someone who is experiencing acute or long-term grief.

Worth the Read
This book was worth the listen. I have been wanting to read this book and have a hard time for a few reasons actually reading. This audible book was a great listen. Trudi shares so much it makes you feel as if you know her. I learned from this in multiple ways. Thank you for sharing the details you did Trudi!

Authentic and inspirational
What would you do if your whole world was turned on its head, leaving you completely alone and in the deepest grief imaginable? Losing every member of your immediate family by the time you’re in your 30s is rare, but choosing to keep forging on is just as unique. How many of us would - understandably - give up completely and lose all hope? Deciding to recreate your life after losing those you love most takes courage, tenacity, and strength, a sick personality-trait test that none of us ever want to take. In her memoir, Trudi shares not only the long journey to process her grief but also how she designed a new life to honor her best self and the memories of those she loves.
Ugh, my heart.
Full disclosure, I know Trudi personally. I’m certain that impacted my emotional response to her novel. I went to the same elementary and high schools as Trudi but am a few years behind her, so although I’ve always known about the deaths of her immediate family members, I had no concept of what her internal journey looked like.
For me, the most impactful part of her story was hearing how she struggled to process the loss of her brother as she was just a child at the time. I cried openly as she explained her interactions and experiences within those first years after his death, leading her to believe that she was inadequate compared to the level of sainthood to which her brother was elevated posthumously. No one ever wants to feel like a consolation prize, but Trudi’s willingness to share this painful belief helped me to understand how we can unintentionally make others feel “less than”.
Throughout the novel, Trudi shared many insights that are helpful in understanding what grief feels like and how challenging it is to process. Her commitment to unlearning some of her hard-wired beliefs is inspirational. She didn’t shy away from sharing moments that are shameful either, and I’m thankful she didn’t because it made her story feel much more real and relatable despite her unique set of losses.
Another beautiful aspect of Trudi’s story is her finding the ability to give herself grace and permission to feel. It is obvious that this wasn’t always instinctual for her, but the reader can clearly see the benefits that followed when she applied this mindset.
This memoir gives a zoomed in view of the pain of grief and the emotional distress that comes with it, but it’s also so much more than that because Trudi takes us with her on her many adventures that ultimately lead to healing.
Inspirational, relatable, enlightening. Thank you, Trudi, for sharing your story.
