Early Praise for Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds
“Liza Vitiello puts forth her bold journey of spiritual unfolding through the almost unfathomable grief of losing her soul-mate husband of many years. Liza documented her grief journey and spiritual connection with Tony through self observation of her experience mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. True to her nature as a healer, one eye was always on how this experience will help others. I have no doubt her reflections and guidance will help many realize their relationships with loved ones don’t end with physical death.”

Liza bravely shares the heartbreaking loss of her soulmate, her husband, and the extraordinary ways she found the strength to keep his presence alive in her heart and her daily life.

Early Praise for Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds
“Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds is a deeply human exploration of grief, love, and the mystery of continuing connection beyond death. Liza Vitiello writes not only as a seasoned therapist, but as a woman courageous enough to let grief break her open into a larger understanding of love itself. With rare clinical groundedness and spiritual honesty, her voice feels trustworthy because she does not bypass the rawness she earns every mystical insight through lived experience. This is not merely a grief memoir. It is a book about continuing relationship, the ways love reshapes itself after death, and the subtle yet powerful awakening that can emerge through devastation.”
— Cheryl Page, author of Mystic Richness: Inspirational Letters from Visionaries Beyond the Veil

Early Praise for Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds
“Liza Vitiello has written something rare, a book that holds grief with both clinical wisdom and spiritual honesty. Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds is the story of a love so deep that when Tony left this world, it did not vanish it simply changed form. She invites us into her most shattered moments without flinching, while modeling the grace of remaining open to healing, to signs, to the quiet language of nature that carries messages from those we love. Her gentle attention to family navigating loss in their own ways, is a masterclass in compassionate presence. For every soul who has ever looked for a sign and wondered if they were imagining it, they were not. Read this book slowly. Let it heal you.”

Early Praise for Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds
“I read Bees, Butterflies and Hummingbirds in one evening. It was a fascinating and compelling read. And, I am a slow reader. Liza is a talented and accomplished therapist, but she doesn't let that interfere with her story of love, death, grief, and renewal. Her authentic telling of her and Tony's experiences and the relationship that they created and maintained through the many challenges that they encountered will touch your hearts and also lift your spirit. I am sending a copy of her memoir to family, friends, and clients who are struggling through the grief process.”
