END OF LIFE PLANNING & DEATHCARE
You are not alone.
Facing the end of your own life or the death of a beloved can be bewildering, heartwrenching, terrifying. It can feel incredibly isolating, especially because many of our communities have forgotten how to support each other in the face of mortality. We don't have many conversations about death, so we often don't have the first idea about what to do when it arrives.
My purpose here at Fiercely Beloved is to remind you that You Are Not Alone. You may be holding fear, confusion, and grief, but you do not have to hold it all on your own. You belong here. You are held here. You can find resources, support, options, advocacy, attention, and a listening ear here. You do not have to navigate this alone. Please reach out, because I am here alongside you, to meet you where you are at. We are relearning - together - how to love each other at the end.
Fiercely Beloved is a love song in the dark.
In the face of loneliness, a call to belonging.
In the face of repression, a call to truth-telling.
In the face of cruelty, a call to community.
In honor of our ancestors, Fiercely Beloved seeks to revive and reimagine practices of community deathcare. In our current world, caring for each other through death can be an act of resistance - by calling each other Fiercely Beloved, we pledge to advocate and to love.
My mission is to support people & communities in reclaiming their relationship with death as a pathway to liberation.
