- End of life advanced care planning
- Creating your Ceremony & taking care of the ones you love
- Coaching and support to have you fulfill on your ”bucket list”
I feel like I have found my niche, especially when I leave the chapel, moved by a service we as professionals provide collaboratively for our community. A community that has changed so much over the years, there are complex issues behind the scenes, cultural, relationship, communication, financial, a difficult job harder. I believe as a Funeral Celebrant my role not only includes providing a “Ceremony” that is an expression of the deceased and what their family want, it also includes working collaboratively with the wider team to navigate the complexity and support grieving families.
And personally I’ve noticed, more so, since working as a funeral celebrant, I am living my bucket list, I suppose because one sees how fragile life really is.
I belief that grief lies on a continuum from tragic upset - to “pure” grief, where deep in the sadness connectedness and love is present
In my experience it seems when people are willing to live life with no regrets, and resolve their upsets along the way, the more “pure” grief seems to be present for others when they die and arrangements seem to flow. ….and here in lies the context for choosing to live my "bucket list" now and training as a Supervisor and Coach to support others on their journey.
My invitation to you is if you haven’t written your bucket list, to write one and if you have written one, great, now share the top item with someone who will support you to make it happen and if you are already doing that.. good on you, I believe life and connection with people is priceless.
