Conscious Death: A Sacred Act
Conscious Dying Is Possible.
Death doesn’t have to be feared, avoided, or hidden away.
It can be met with presence. With courage. With grace.
We prepare for so many passages in life — birth, marriage, even retirement. But death? Often it arrives unspoken, unmet. This space is for those who know there must be another way. A more sacred way.
Whether you’re walking toward your own transition or sitting with someone you love, you don’t have to do it alone. There is peace to be found here. Meaning. Even beauty.
If you’re looking for a steady presence to walk beside you — I’m here.
Death is not a medical event. It’s a soul passage.
In a culture that avoids, pathologizes, and sterilizes death, I offer another way — a more human, more reverent, more conscious path.
I’ve worked in the liminal for decades. I’m not afraid of the threshold. I walk with those who are dying — and those who are loving them — through the sacred unraveling that prepares the soul to cross.
Whether you are actively dying, grieving, caregiving, or simply feeling the call to explore death with clarity and consciousness — there is space for you here.
💀 Talking About Death
Death isn’t a failure. It isn’t a punishment. It isn’t the enemy.
It’s the most intimate part of life — the moment we return.
In a world that numbs itself to endings,
I offer a space to feel them.
To ask the questions.
To speak the unspoken.
To explore what dying actually means — spiritually, emotionally, and even practically.
We prepare for birth with classes, coaches, rituals, and reverence.
Why not prepare for death the same way?
✨ Why I Do This Work
Because I’ve sat with the dying.
Because I’ve witnessed the sacredness that rises when death is invited in, not pushed away.
Because we don’t have to be afraid.
Because I believe we are meant to die as consciously as we live
If you're navigating death — your own, or someone you love — and you're looking for someone to walk with you, I’m here. You don’t have to do this alone.
Client Comments:
+ Peace of mind
Knowing things will be the way I want when I'm dying is more comforting then I realized it would be. Gary D.
+ Kind and compassionate
Suzanne gently guided me in discovering what was most important to me. David K.
Frequent Questions:
+ Is Suzanne a funeral planner?
No. While I can offer guidance and ideas to make your farewell meaningful and aligned with your values, I do not coordinate logistics or legal arrangements like a traditional funeral planner. My role is more spiritual than administrative — I hold space, not clipboards.
+ Will Suzanne help me write a will?
No. I am not a legal advisor or estate planner. I encourage everyone to take care of these essential documents with the help of a trusted attorney. I can, however, support you in exploring your wishes, values, and intentions as part of your sacred transition.
+ Can I plan my active dying process?
Yes. In fact, I believe it is one of the most courageous and compassionate acts you can do for yourself and your loved ones. I offer support in creating a conscious death plan — from environment and music to spiritual practices and last conversations. This work is guided by your desires, beliefs, and comfort level.
+ What happens after death?
Ah, the great mystery. I don’t pretend to know it all — but I do know the soul continues. There are ancient maps, sacred texts, and intuitive wisdom that speak of what lies beyond. I walk with those who are curious, afraid, hopeful, or all of the above. Together, we honor what is known and leave space for what is unknowable.
+ What does a death doula do?
A death doula is a companion to the dying — someone who walks alongside you (and your loved ones) during one of life’s most profound transitions. I offer emotional, energetic, and spiritual support before, during, and after death. This may look like helping you articulate final wishes, guiding rituals, holding space for grief and release, or simply being present in the silence. I am not here to fix or save. I am here to witness, tend, and honor the sacred threshold.
