This was such a refreshing perspective. I think about death more than I should or want to. My death, the death of my loved ones. This helped me reframe so much.

I am very similar to you in your journey. Newly grief alchemist, poetry therapy practitioner, eager to absorb as much a possible about removing fear and traditional narratives around the sacred act of living our death. I hope we can keep in touch.

Love this post! Have you read The Death Class: A True Story About Life by Erika Hayasaki? I devoured it before my Death Doula training and would LOVE to take the class from the professor described in the book 😍
