Life’s Last Chapter

What do we really talk about when we talk about death? Life’s Last Chapter opens the door to real, meaningful conversations with people who walk beside us through the final chapters of life—celebrants, palliative care workers, funeral directors, and more. Hosted by someone who unexpectedly found themselves inside the funeral industry, this podcast is a heartfelt exploration of what it means to live, grieve, say goodbye, and carry on. Whether you’re curious, grieving, planning ahead, or just wanting to understand this universal part of life a little better, this space is for you. Join us as we pull back the curtain on death with honesty, compassion, and maybe even a little hope.

In this first episode of my personal reflection series, I explore the idea of “making friends with yourself first.” Through honest reflection, I share why self-acceptance, believing the good things people say about you, letting go of comparison, not taking everything personally, and challenging your inner critic can help create a stronger relationship with yourself. A simple but powerful reminder that the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one with yourself.
