It’s time for another Death Cafe! ☕️

Join me on Tuesday, July 8th, from 5:30 to 7:00 PM at Monadnock Community Hospital for an open conversation about death and all that surrounds it—our thoughts, questions, experiences, and reflections.

This Death Cafe is hosted and sponsored by Home Healthcare, Hospice & Community Services - HCS.

There is never a charge to attend, but registration is required:

A Death Cafe is an event where people get together to eat cake, drink tea, and discuss death.

In my work as a EOL doula and minister, I often talk about thresholds…those in-between places where something ends, and something new begins.

Last night, while standing beside a Beltane fire, I was reminded that thresholds aren’t always about letting go. Some are about lighting up.

The fire flared, rose, then settled…steady and alive, just like the moments that change us.

Whether we’re facing birth, death, or one of life’s many turning points, we’re always crossing into something new.

Sometimes we let go peacefully. Other times, something deep within us is set ablaze.

Looking forward to presenting this workshop tomorrow, sponsored by Maps Counseling Services. Cultural humility is an ongoing practice—one that requires self-reflection, openness, and a willingness to honor diverse beliefs, traditions, and identities. I’m grateful for the opportunity to explore this important topic with fellow professionals.

How do you integrate cultural humility into your own work?

I am deeply honored to officiate the burial of this forgotten man, 85 years after his death. Every human being deserves to be treated with dignity, even in death.
