PACKETS of HOPE

When grief shattered her world, Jill Siegal Chalsty boarded the Queen Anne on its maiden world voyage to find healing and purpose. Packets of Hope: A Journey of Healing and Rediscovery is a deeply personal memoir that follows Jill through twenty-six ports of call across the globe. With every stop—be it the spiritual resilience of Tonga, the harsh beauty of Namibia, or the hopeful faces of children in China—she weaves together intimate reflections, human connection, and her life’s mission to equip young people with essential life skills.

“Maybe you’re standing at the edge of your own unknown, wondering if healing is possible, if purpose can follow pain, if the heart can expand after it’s been broken. I’ve learned the answer is yes—yes, it can. And so can you.”
