A wonderful conversation with Rose Sexton and Nicole Parker from End Stage Matters. They are both End of Life Doulas, and we're talking about Death As a Rite of Passage. Nic and Rose both speak about their own experiences with death, their professional background, what moves them to do this profound work, and the actions they are taking 'on the ground' in North East Victoria to improve death literacy. Death Cafes, Dying to Know Days, a Play - they're doing a lot of change work, opening up spaces for people to get educated about their choices. Rose is also a Palliative Care Nurse and Nick is both a Health Coach and a Counsellor. I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with these women and feel a lot more informed about what is possible. They touched on how poorly our culture handles education around death as well as the importance of preparing for the transition from this life to the next. I imagine we could go a lot deeper down some of the paths we touched on in this particular conversation. If you'd like to know more, you can contact Rose and Nic via www.endstagematters.com.au
