Death is a call to LOVE

Death, like birth, calls on our most tender places of the heart.

In dying, we sometimes confuse love with the desire to make nice for fear of upsetting others with what is. When fear leads the way, we have limited vision of the path up ahead.

My role is to support you in imagining the dying process, bringing to it what matters most to you, and supporting your grief, purpose, and love present in the process.

Death, dying, grief and grieving are incredibly challenging. We instinctively want to avoid and effectively deny pain, confusion, constant burden, and change we did not ask for. Making nice is a kind of pretending that doesn’t make anyone feel better. In fact, it increases their sense of isolation.

My role is to hold a listening space when things start to breakdown and gently offer options, knowing that re-setting the direction of hope is part of the path in the final arc-of-life.

I can be present with you, side-by-side with the fears, commitments, controls, and other moving pieces in the love story.
