Meet Penny
Penny Waugh
Founder of The Death Network
Hello! I'm Penny, founder of The Death Network and a certified Death Doula. Before stepping into death work, I spent 35 years in online sales and marketing, helping businesses connect with the people who needed them most.
One thing I've learned is that even the most talented and compassionate professionals need to be visible to be found. That's why I created this online tool - to help death doulas and death workers build a meaningful online presence, share their unique gifts, and connect with the families they are called to serve in today's digital world.
Let’s work together
Need an online presence, but the idea of launching your own website feels daunting - not to mention the time, cost, and energy it takes to build and maintain one?
That’s where I come in. With a Death Network Partner Page, you’ll have a thoughtfully crafted, ready-to-share profile that reflects who you are and makes it easier for the right people to find you - without the stress of doing it all yourself.
Here’s what you get as a Network Partner:
Your Own Page
A dedicated profile page that features your bio, specialties, and direct contact form. You shine, we amplify.
Check out my page: Penny’s page.
Personal QR Code
