Talking about death and dying makes it less mysterious, more transparent, less transactional, more relational and builds community

What happens when total strangers gather to talk about death? Magic, honestly. ✨

Last week, I had the pleasure of facilitating a Death Cafe at the TPL Walter Stewart branch. We held space for what was on everyone's minds and hearts regarding dying and grief.

It might sound heavy, but these conversations always find a way to invigorate us and bring us closer together. Thank you to the Library and everyone who came out and shared so vulnerably 💛

YOUR PRESENCE IS THE PRESENT. Happy Sunday, I'm preparing for my weekly Hospice Reiki visit by being rested, grounded, calm and open-hearted. This type of presence is what is required to be able to witness deep emotional pain with others. It is a gift for both my client and myself to spend this time together

Excited to share our second lecture at the Kimel Family Centre-Baycrest, in partnership with the Home Hospice Association!
Our focus was on Living and Dying Well, and we drew beautiful inspiration from Mitch Albom’s Tuesdays with Morrie (and loved being able to give away a copy to a member of our community!).
Morrie’s final thesis was simple: facing our mortality is actually the key to living a more meaningful life.
But how do we actually navigate that path?
As an end-of-life doula with a background in holistic coaching, this is exactly where my work begins. While a traditional healthcare system focuses on the physical illness, a holistic doula looks at the whole person. By combining coaching tools with compassionate end-of-life care, I help individuals:
• Navigate the emotional and spiritual transitions of aging and illness.
• Process fears and find deep, intentional peace.
• Co-create a legacy plan that honors how they want to live and how they want to be remembered.
It is a privilege to bring this holistic approach to our community. Thank you to everyone who came out to listen, share, and reframe how we talk about life's final chapter. 🤍

Last Thursday, I had the honor of delivering Part 1 of a 4-lecture series at the Kimel Family Centre - Baycrest, in a wonderful partnership with the Home Hospice Association.
Our core message was simple yet profound: helping individuals and their family & friends navigate end-of-life mindfully, can bring greater meaning to the journey.

We plan for the birth, the wedding, the retirement. Why do we skip the finale? Most of us spend more time planning a vacation than we do discussing end-of-life values. Nicole Kidman's recent move into Death Doula training isn't just a headline, it's a wake up call for the "death avoidant" culture we live in. As Nicole recently highlighted "there is a profound need for for a different kind of support -- one that centers on presence, dignity, and the messy reality of being mortal". End-of-care isn't just a medical event, it's a human one. In my lived experience and training with Home Hospice Association, I've seen what happens when families are left to navigate the "business of dying" without a map. Hiring a Death Doula can help families with navigate the dying process and help them feel comfortable, supported and informed.
