S1 Ep 7: Sculpting the Inevitable: Our Relationship with Death and Dying with Helen Callanan

Death wasn't always a taboo topic and children once upon a time weren't "protected" from it either. In fact, unlike modern times children were exposed to death from a young age. In this latest episode of Relationships Under the Microscope, my esteemed guest Helen Callanan and I discuss the options available for us to make deliberate and personalised end of life decisions, allowing us to forge our own path at this important stage of life.

Helen is a distinguished end-of-life doula and the visionary Founder, Managing Director, and Lead Educator of Preparing the Way. With a background in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Reiki, Helen brings nearly four decades of profound experience in supporting the aging, critically ill, and dying.

Helen discusses grief and death in a respectful and humble way. She shares the history of how our perceptions of death have changed, offers advice on how to make space for grief, and recalls her own heart-moving experiences in this field.
