Signs From Above, Healing After Loss.
A true story of grief, the quiet signs that carried her through it, and the life she built on the other side.
In the months that followed, Sima began noticing what she couldn't explain — a butterfly at the window on the hardest days, a song at the exact right moment, a stranger's words that felt sent rather than said.
Butterfly Bites is the record of those signs, and of what it took to trust them.
A loss no one could have prepared her for, and the silence that followed it.
Small, undeniable moments that felt like messages from somewhere else.
Choosing to stop fighting the grief, and to let it teach her instead.
A new life, built deliberately on what the loss revealed to her.
This is the heart of Butterfly Bites — not a before and after to compare, but a transformation to witness.
Signs From Above, Healing After Loss
Part memoir, part field guide to grief, Butterfly Bites follows Sima's path from devastating loss to a life shaped by meaning — and offers a gentle framework for anyone learning to read their own signs.
Sima never set out to write a book about grief. She set out to survive it. Butterfly Bites became the story of everything she learned in between — about loss, about signs, and about the woman she became when she finally let herself heal.
Today she writes and speaks about the same questions that once undid her: what do we do with pain we didn't choose, and how do we build something honest on the other side of it?
