  • Death Café – Open Conversation on Life and Death

    Chattanooga Library 1001 Broad St, Chattanooga, TN, United States

    Join us for an open, judgment-free conversation about death, dying, and everything in between at our next Death Café. This is not a grief group, seminar, or counseling session—just a welcoming space to explore big questions, share thoughts, and connect with others over treats. At a Death Café, there's no set agenda or lecture. Instead, we gather in community to talk openly about a topic that affects us all, but is often left unspoken. Whether you're processing personal experiences, curious about end-of-life matters, or simply wish to listen, you're welcome here. Come when you can, stay as long as you'd […]

  • The Last Stitch Society

    The Exchange 617 Marin St, Vallejo, CA, United States

    The Last Stitch Society creates space for the conversations many of us crave but rarely find—about mortality, grief, loss, and how we might live more fully by acknowledging life's impermanence. Bring any portable craft project—knitting, embroidery, mending, sketching—and join us as we stitch and share. No experience necessary, just an openness to authentic connection. Light refreshments provided to nourish both body and conversation. In a culture that often pushes difficult topics into the shadows, Last Stitch Society offers a warm, welcoming environment to explore the full spectrum of human experience. Together, we'll unravel the threads of meaning that connect us […]

  • The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience 12-Month Death and Dying Course

    According to a recent AARP study, there are over 52 million caregivers in the United States right now—and 70% of them say they are overwhelmed. Every single day, I receive messages from current and former caregivers who say: “I wish I had this knowledge when I was caring for my loved one.” Or: “The Doulagivers training is helping me more than I can say.” The truth is: We will all have a caregiving story. Let’s make sure yours is one filled with support, empowerment, and peace. That’s why I created The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience—a free, live, 12-month educational […]
