End of Life Education & Planning

Bridging the gap between practical planning and meaningful conversations about life's final chapter

I am an End-of-Life Educator and Planner, working with individuals, organisations, and professionals to facilitate open and informative conversations about death and dying for their clients and communities.

When someone dies, those left behind face many unexpected challenges. Conversations about death can benefit people in numerous ways, making the inevitable more approachable, natural and practical.

Maven Bridge End-of-Life Education and Advanced Care Planning provides services and workshops that support the much-needed conversations about the End-of-Life journey, creating value beyond practical arrangements.

Imagine if we took the fear away

It's time we created opportunities for people to talk about the subject of our End of Life journey and all that goes with it.
By fostering open conversations about death, we can transform a daunting topic into an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. In this space, we have the courage to reflect on our values and beliefs, shaping the crucial end-of-life decisions that affect both ourselves and our loved ones.
This shift in perspective empowers us to make informed choices, ensuring that our final moments resonate with the essence of who we are.
Ultimately, liberating ourselves from the fear of death enables a deeper appreciation of life, facilitating connections and experiences that enrich our journey and those of the people we cherish.

"Every decision you make—every decision—is not a decision about what to do. It's a decision about Who You Are." anon

We shun discussion while those we love are still with us, and when they near death (as in aging or inflicted by disease), we avoid and often leave important decisions to strangers in the funeral or healthcare industry. I began to ask if we could change this, and my journey began. I am committed to bridging the gap in discussing death and considering decisions that can be based on values and considered choices.

I am passionate about the need to support our community with End of Life Workshops and Advanced Care planning sessions. Working with community groups and those in the care industry and service providers, to deepen understanding of heart-centred End-of-Life conversations and decision making.

My work is secular in nature with respect for the individuality of every persons values and beliefs.

Conversations & Stories

"I have lived a full life, it seems now I'm aged people are only interested in caskets and wills. Death is a reality, why can't we talk about it?

" I have been a nurse and cared for the aged for many of those years, I am great at the technicalities of care, but I just don't have the skills or knowledge to discuss the whole End-Of-Life subject".

"If we had only had discussions before Dad passed, there was so much we could have done to make his passing less traumatic and confusing for him and the family".
