Can you imagine what would happen if we, the living, explored these things before we got to the point of having to?
As an end-of-life doula, Kristen Elliott is
trained to guide people to find meaning in their lives, come to
terms with their unfinished business, have those really hard
conversations, and think deeply about all the joy, fulfillment, and
love they’ve experienced. As a result, they often come to know
their fears, hopes, regrets, and gratitude at the deepest level.
They find deep joy in living and themselves. Except... they’re at
the end of their life.
Kristen believes we have to kill the things that no longer serve,
continuously throughout our lives, to keep inching closer to our
most authentic selves. And through this process, we learn how to
live our soul truth. She is passionate about helping people
maintain their sovereignty through their end of life process.
