I sought to become an End-of-Embodiment Doula after coming to new terms of living, having gone through various losses myself. I realized that I wanted to work with people who were dying, in their state of death, and grieving. I saw gaps in the care people frequently experience through the pathways of dying and death. I wanted to help bring family closeness into spaces where families often feel stiff or alienated from the process of their person dying. I wanted to bring clarity to inadequate responses in conversations with health authorities involving the end of life. I wanted to highlight the naturalness of dying and death with its inherent beauty and wisdom.
