I am a mother, daughter, sister, wife, and friend.
My family and friends are the center of my universe.

I find comfort in spending time with my favourite people. Cooking for my family and friends feeds me. I am fuelled by being in nature - simply noticing the birds, the breeze, and the waves. I am also energized by moving in nature; hiking, biking, swimming, paddling, skiing — my moving meditation.

My life up until this point, both personal and professional, has led me perfectly here, to a place where I can gently encourage people to consider a different story about death. With Doula clients and with participants in workshops and courses, I support others to consider what truly makes life worth living, exploring fears, regrets, wishes for future health care, life’s shiny moments, and love. A big focus on love. I do what I can to support a life rich with connection right up until the last moments.

It is my hope to reduce suffering at the end of life by encouraging people to live well, sharing simple information about the nature of the journey, encouraging heart-centred conversations and planning, and finding as many opportunities for meaning, connection, presence, and pleasure as possible.
