End-of-Life Workshops & Public Speaking
Engaging, Thoughtful, and Transformative Workshops on Death, Grief, and End-of-Life Care
My workshops help caregivers and communities explore grief, caregiving, and hospice care with compassion and clarity.
Combining over ten years of teaching experience with my work as a Certified Death Doula, I create learning spaces that invite reflection, understanding, and growth.
Why Choose Jill
When you invite Jill to speak, you’re bringing more than a presentation; you're creating a heartfelt experience rooted in education, presence, and connection. With over a decade of teaching experience and her work as a Certified Death Doula, Jill makes sensitive topics around death, dying, grief, and end-of-life care accessible, engaging, and transformative.
You’ll choose Jill because she:
Creates a safe space for open, honest dialogue about death, dying, grief, and end-of-life care
Brings expertise with heart, making complex or difficult subjects approachable and meaningful
Crafts workshops tailored to your group, whether a large audience or an intimate gathering
Inspires transformation, helping participants leave prepared, empowered, and at peace
With Jill, your audience gains more than knowledge; they gain tools, clarity, and connections that last long after the session ends.
