How to Have the Hard Conversations Before the Hard Things Happen
Manage episode 427300109 series 2528844
Hospice nurse Eileen Spillane of Befriending Death has learned to be comfortable with the uncomfortable. Eileen is the Founder of Befriending Death and has been a Registered Nurse for over thirty years, specializing in Oncology, Critical Care, and Obstetrics. She is a certified Life Coach from New Ventures West, a former Zen Hospice Project Volunteer, a Meditation Teacher, and an Active Travel Guide. She has been at the bedside of many as they transition through the dying process and cares very deeply about this topic.
On the Befriending Death website, Eileen writes that “if we have conversations about it (death), we might loosen up the fear and anxiety around it. If we prepare and share our wishes, we can give our loved ones the gift of clarity and direction so they feel confident they are following our wishes and have the opportunity to grieve without further unnecessary stress”.
Eileen’s courses can benefit everyone, from people with life-changing illnesses to elder law attorneys and caregivers for someone with a chronic illness. The courses include smaller “buddy groups” that create a deeper connection between participants. The Let's Chat About Death course provides an opportunity to investigate what’s important in our lives and make changes that reflect that.
