Ready to meet grief where it bares its teeth?
Enroll in This Grief Has Teeth and gain the clarity, presence, and depth required to serve in the wake of deaths that don’t fit the “good death” narrative, where sacredness is complicated, and dignity must be reclaimed.
What you’ll get:
-
4+ hours of recorded instruction exploring the side of deathcare most traditional death doula trainings and end-of-life educators avoid; including sudden and unexpected death, pediatric and pregnancy loss, suicide and overdose, medical aid in dying (MAiD), voluntary stopping of eating and drinking (VSED), and injustices in death care
-
Case studies, personal stories, and reflective journaling prompts to help you wrestle with the philosophical and practical realities of loss that defy resolution
-
Tools to examine your own biases, deepen your presence, and translate deathwork into meaningful acts of social justice
- Guidance on how to walk alongside those traditional systems overlook, and offer sacred tending in the places others turn away
This is the sixth unit of the comprehensive Farewell Education Deathwalker Apprenticeship.
It can also be taken as a standalone offering for therapists, chaplains, caregivers, community advocates, or anyone seeking to bring doula presence to the places where the “good death” framework abandons us, and is especially valuable for those who have completed traditional death doula trainings and are ready to explore the topics those programs often leave out.
