Dementia Trainer, End-of-Life Coach
Speaking from the Heart: End-of-Life Conversations. End-of-life conversations are essential for ensuring that a person's wishes and preferences are respected and that they receive the care and support they need during this time.
Having end-of-life conversations can be emotionally challenging. However, they can also be an opportunity for loved ones to come together, express their love and appreciation for each other, and create a plan for the person's care and support in the final stages of their life. By having these conversations, individuals can ensure that their wishes are respected and receive the care and support they need during this difficult time.
End-of-life conversations can involve a variety of topics, including the person's preferences for medical treatment and care, their wishes for their funeral and memorial service, and their wishes for their possessions and finances. It can also involve discussing advanced care planning, such as using a living will or a durable power of attorney for healthcare.

Anna had recently lost her mother, and our conversation veered from taboo topics to end-of-life experiences. While this may sound like a challenging episode to hear, it's pretty uplifting. Having end-of-life conversations is essential. It makes the experience less scary and confusing.
