In this week’s episode, Claire and Gemma welcome Grace Kym Thorne. At the time of recording, Grace called herself the ‘Dead Positive Death Doula’ but has since rebranded as the ‘End of Life Concierge’. Go and find her on Instagram here: @endoflifeconcierge.
Grace opened up a very important conversation about the only certainty in our lives...death.
While you might expect this episode to be morbid, sad and depressing it’s actually the complete opposite.
Hear us chat to Grace and learn
- how the sudden death of her son’s father shaped her future career
- her beliefs around death being the end
- how to proactively plan your death
- the importance of choice
Join us on this exceptionally moving, honest and beautiful exploration of reframing death into something that can be a positive experience. Hear Grace’s moving accounts of what she has learned being a bystander and support when people transition from this world to the next.
