To empower individuals and communities to approach the end of life with openness and peace. Through education, planning, and compassionate support, we transform the fear of death into opportunities for us to live more fully.
Kim and Lindsay met over 20 years ago working as neonatal intensive care nurses in Chicago. Their friendship grew over countless shifts together seeing the joy of miraculous births and the heartbreak of premature loss. Holding compassionate space for families (biological or chosen) in crisis.
Through their NICU work and each experiencing numerous deaths personally, they both developed a deep understanding of life's most precious transitions.
Since 2022, Kim and Lindsay have been working as hospice volunteers and have done extensive study on the topic. They both received their death doula certification through Going with Grace end-of-life training.
