In 2025, TJ Higgs celebrates a remarkable 25 years of service in the field of spiritual guidance with the launch of Benny’s Big Adventure, a children’s book designed to help young readers understand and process grief. This new project marks an important milestone in TJ’s journey, as it broadens her impact to include literature that speaks directly to children navigating difficult emotions during times of loss.
Benny’s Big Adventure is a deeply personal and compassionate story, inspired by the need for accessible and gentle resources to help children discuss death. Written in a tone that is both soothing and engaging, the book uses the character of Benny to guide young readers through the process of understanding grief in a safe and supportive way. Early feedback from parents and educators has praised the book for its emotional resonance and effectiveness. One parent shared, “My daughter loved the story, such a gentle way to explain death and grief.” Another noted, “My sons absolutely adore Benny—the book is a visual pleasure. After the recent passing of their beloved pops, this really helped. Thank you, TJ.”
TJ’s decision to create a children’s book reflects her ongoing commitment to fostering emotional literacy and resilience, especially during times of personal loss. By focusing on a topic that is often challenging to address with young audiences, Benny’s Big Adventure is positioned as both an educational tool for parents, teachers, and caregivers, and as a comforting resource for families coping with grief.
The book joins a growing portfolio of works from TJ, who has spent decades advocating for spiritual development and personal healing. In addition to her new children’s book, TJ is also the founder of Spiritual Lifestyle, a publication focused on personal growth, mindfulness, and emotional well-being. This magazine serves as a valuable resource for individuals interested in expanding their understanding of spirituality in everyday life.
As part of her outreach efforts, TJ continues to share insights through various media, including her podcast, where she addresses a variety of topics related to emotional well-being, resilience, and personal development. This ongoing dialogue with her community allows her to stay connected to her followers and continue offering support in times of need.
The launch of Benny’s Big Adventure comes at a time when global conversations about mental health, family communication, and emotional education for children are gaining greater attention. The book provides a timely resource that supports these important conversations, offering a way for children to process difficult emotions in a gentle, age-appropriate manner.
Looking forward, TJplans to continue her work by publishing a series of articles on themes such as emotional literacy, grief education, and personal development, alongside sharing more stories from her extensive experience working with children and families navigating life’s challenges.
