An empty chair can change the whole room.

This season can bring grief right to the table. You don’t need to hide it or explain it away.

Speak your person’s name if you want to.

Here are a few tips to support you during this 'Festive' season.

Share them with anyone you know who is grieving someone who's died. It might be a recent death, or one from a long time ago. Grief doesn't have a timeline.

If you're new here, I thought I'd share a little bit about me and why I do what I do.

A couple of weeks ago, I was lucky enough to be on a panel called 'Meet a Death Doula'.

I was joined by Jo from and Dr John Rosenberg. It was really well attended, thanks to Libraries spreading the word.

I hope I get more opportunities to share what I know with people in the community, so they can make informed choices, when it comes to the end of their lives.

Planning your funeral

25/11/2025

When people say to me that they don't want a funeral, I like to dig a little deeper to find out why.

Below are some of the frequent concerns people have, and some possibilities

I believe that marking the occasion is some way, is important, and to do it in a way that works for everyone.

Let me know if you want to chat about your funeral! Book in a time for a chat - https://calendly.com/anniecaulfield15/15min on through my link in BIO 🔗

THE REBIRTH OF DEAHTCARE

A thoughtful and powerful article.

Deathcare is changing! People want more agency, more authenticity, more personal ritual, and a move away from the cookie-cutter model. Would you agree?

“People have the power, but they have to work it. They have to participate.” (Zenith Virago)
