Let us eat cake and talk about death
I started a virtual Death Cafe shortly after starting my practice. I discontinued after a about a year due to other obligations, but I’m starting them again. I will host another community Death Cafe-style virtual event on Tuesday, May 14 at 6:30 PM ET. It is free and open to anyone, and the conversations can be about anything that you feel you need to talk about. Holding these conversations by Zoom allows everyone to participate and gives us all a sense of togetherness, but if you’re not ready to share with strangers, I’m available for private chats as well. I’m still looking for a location to do an in-person event locally where I can also livestream for those who want to attend remotely. A few people have asked about Instagram or Facebook Live, but those venues don’t facilitate conversations between each other, which is the benefit and foundation of a Death Cafe. I also am available in my private group Solace Sanctuary if people would feel more comfortable carrying on discussions or continuing discussion that way. It is a safe and sacred space where anyone can talk about death, dying, aging, grief and other “big” life and death stuff.

Planning, planning, planning
I’ve been quiet here as I plan new and exciting outreach, education and personal growth opportunities coming soon. I look forward to sharing them with you in the coming weeks and months.

Dotted “i”s and Crossed “t”s
As of a few minutes ago, I have officially completed all of my certification and insurance work to be an end of life doula.

Death Doulas for Racial Justice
I’m brand new in death care and grief work, and I’m grateful these Black women’s voices are being amplified so I could learn before I developed stubborn wrong thinking. I understand better now that death is not the great equalizer, and not only white men die or determine when death is “good.” If I want […]
