Navigating Grief with Archetypes and Faith: A Father's Story

A profound and courageous reflection on losing a child and the spiritual tools that help navigate an ocean of grief.

What Happens When a Leader Loses His Son?

"Dad, get to Andy's house right away."

"I don't know why... but I think it's going to be bad."

These are the words that changed David Hulings' life forever. The Archetypes Attend a Funeral [https://a.co/d/5Zu3ett] is the unflinching and tender chronicle of a father grappling with the unthinkable: the suicide of his son. But more than a memoir of grief, this book is a spiritual map, built on archetypal theory and anchored in Christian faith, meant to guide others through their own storms of loss and sorrow.

Written with clarity, raw honesty, and grace, David invites readers to walk with him through the days following Andy's death, offering both comfort and direction to those navigating similar oceans of grief.

Archetypes as Anchors in the Storm

Drawing on decades of leadership coaching and his work in archetypal psychology, David connects 12 timeless archetypes, including the Caregiver, the Orphan, the Creator, and the Seeker, to the emotional chaos of loss. Through stories, scripture, and deeply personal reflections, he shows how these symbolic "companions" helped him survive, and continue to shape, his journey through pain.

" This book is not a guidebook on grief ," David writes. " It's a logbook from my own voyage, one that I pray can serve as a compass for others ."

While rooted in his own heartbreak, the insights in The Archetypes Attend a Funeral [https://a.co/d/5Zu3ett] are broad enough to resonate with anyone who has experienced loss, especially those looking for a language to describe the indescribable.

Coming Soon

"The Archetypes Attend a Funeral [https://a.co/d/5Zu3ett]" will be available to purchase soon through major online retailers in paperback, hardcover, digital and audible formats. The eBook is available on pre-order now on Amazon [https://a.co/d/5Zu3ett]. It's an essential resource for pastors, counselors, parents, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of grief, mental health, and the hope that endures.
