WORKSHOP OVERVIEW:
There are few parts of life that we meet with less knowledge and understanding than the end of it. It doesn't have to be this way. Join us for four heartfelt conversations about what it means to embrace the fact that death is simply part of life.
During our time together, we will take a comprehensive, holistic, and modern approach to personal planning tasks. Working with a thoughtfully designed curriculum in an intimate and supportive setting, you’ll have a chance to ask questions, share stories, and learn about what it really means to "have your affairs in order".
Over four sessions, we'll think about what it means to put plans in place for living and one day, dying. We will explore:
- Legal, Administrative and Financial documentation
- Medical and Philosophical decision-making
- Funeral and Ceremony planning
- Emotional Heirlooms (legacy work)
MONDAYS, October 7-November 7, 2024 from 1pm-4pm

This isn't typical estate planning. Our time together will take an integrated, connected approach designed to get you from overwhelmed to done. It's the key to ensuring you are ready for ANYTHING, at every stage of life. Join us!
