The Death Network
End-of-Life Collective
We are a collective of death doulas, end-of-life guides, funeral professionals, and grief guides offering compassionate support through one of life’s most sacred transitions.
With deep roots in tradition and an openness to what’s emerging, our network provides seamless care -from bedside to burial, from planning to parting.
We believe in doing death differently - with intention, with care, and in ways that truly reflect a life well lived.

Popular Experiences
Dinner & Death - a delicious meal accompanied by a lively, guided conversation about death & dying.
Movement & Meditation - embrace the art of slowing down with yin yoga, meditation and journaling to help integrate grief into our everyday lives.
End-of-Life Planning - there is no better gift you can leave your loved ones than planning ahead for your own death, but it’s a lot of work! Rather than your monthly book group, consider an end-of-life planning gathering where we’ll explore rising deathcare trends and alternative options that oftentimes aren’t offered at the standard funeral home.
