I just had an experience within the medical system that perfectly highlights the role of a death doula as an advocate. I spent the last two weeks—and especially the last hour and a half—standing in line at the pharmacy, trying to get my pharmacist and my doctor’s office to communicate with each other so I could access a medication I’ve taken every single day since I was 19. Nothing has changed medically. There’s just been a breakdown in communication, which means I had to advocate for myself. As

Why is the relationship between death and grief more of an open marriage than a monogamous one? Find out in my conversation with Death Doula Alua Arthur, founder of Going with Grace End of Life Planners, this week on #ItsOkPod. If you don’t know Alua’s work, you might think all this stuff she does - these conversations about end-of-life and facing your mortality sound - well, morbid. But here’s the thing: people who directly engage with the reality of life tend to be immensely joyful, not morbid

Should you live each day like it’s your last? What makes a meaningful life? These are big questions. According to Death Doula Alua Arthur, founder of Going with Grace End of Life Planners, conversations about death can be the most enriching conversations we have. It’s not about accepting death, or avoiding grief - it’s about building a relationship with yourself and others that doesn’t hold anything back. If you’ve ever wondered what exploring mortality could do for you - or you’d just like to k

My friend Joe Kotzin died. 💜 Joe was 86 years old, and at his memorial service, I felt almost giddy or effervescent. The experience I was having in my body felt like a testament to a good memorial service. It felt like Joe. And served as a kind of life retrospective—a capstone to his life, allowing us to say goodbye. I met Joe over a decade ago, at my last job at Legal Aid. He saw me through the transition from lawyer into death care, and I got a front row seat as he fell in love with and marri

The TENS machine (provided by my Doula) was my saving grace and stayed on my back throughout my entire labour. When a contraction came I would hit the boost button and it would ramp up to provide me with a little pain relief and a welcomed distraction! #labourandbirth #laboranddelivery #tensmachine #pregnancyjourney #labourstory #labourpain #birth #csectiondelivery #pregnancytips #labourtips
