EP 23 - Journey To Becoming A Death Walker

I'm sure you've heard the term Birth Doula, but have you ever heard of a Death Doula, or Death Walker? I know I sure hadn't until I was introduced to my guest Tonya Woolford and I am so happy she is here to discuss this with us today. A death walker is a person who assists in the dying process, much like a midwife or doula does with the birthing process. They can sit vigil during the dying process, create death plans, assist in advanced directives, provide spiritual support, help with legacy projects such as scrapbooks, write letters and more. It is such important work that Tonya is doing - giving a dying person and/or their family the dignity and peace that they deserve in their last moments. Thank you for sharing your story Tonya. Check out Tonya here!www.deathpositivemovement.cawww.facebook.com/tonya-woolford-death-doula-and-end-of-life-planner  Show sponsor:www.simplycounsellingservices.comwww.instagram.com/simplycounsellingservice Follow me on Social! Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hardbeautifuljourney/https://www.instagram.com/mstiffvaughan/ Facebook:  www.facebook.com/hardbeautifuljourneywww.facebook.com/mstiffvaughan
