“Live and Die Awake is an extraordinary book and must-read for all of us as we navigate this earth life and the worlds beyond. As an evidential medium, I had the honor of sitting with Julie and relaying messages from her beloved husband, Jim, who validated he was still around her, navigating from a higher frequency. His love, awareness of things happening in present time, helped bridge the feeling of loss into a knowing that love stays . . . always. Julie Wright Halbert has written a masterpiece . . . a guide for us all. I am in awe.”

“For too long, death has been feared, and we’ve lived in avoidance of the great universal experience we will all face. The cost: being fully alive. Once in a while, a teacher arrives who can lead us to a new paradigm. Julie Wright Halbert, an emerging national voice in grief literacy, is that leader. Striking on the page, actionable in the hands, and sacred in the heart, Live and Die Awake is a blueprint, a balm, and the beginning of a global movement whose time has come.”

“Some books inform. Some books comfort. A rare few transforms. Live and Die Awake is one of those rare books. Julie Wright Halbert writes with the authority of someone who has stood at the intersection of profound love and profound loss and found a deeper truth waiting on the other side. Her story is deeply personal, yet the lessons are universal. She reminds us that grief is not something to conquer or escape. It is something to be honored, understood, and ultimately integrated into a life lived fully.”
