EP 95 - Jessica Spalo: Why You Need An End Of Life Doula
Death is pretty taboo in our culture, to the point that when it does happen around us, we are often left not knowing what to do or what our options are. It turns out there are doulas who can help transition people into the world, and some doulas can help us transition out.
Jessica Spalo is the founder and an end-of-life doula for Comfort in Crossing. She helps both those who are passing and their family by offering support in a multitude of ways. You would probably be surprised to find out what an end-of-life doula can all do and how they can help. You truly don’t have to do this alone!
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- What is an end-of-life doula and how can they help people and their loved ones
- What sort of person could benefit from the aid of an end-of-life doula in their home
- Why a doula can help the loved one almost more than the actual person who is dying
- Some of the options you have when your loved one passes that most people aren’t aware of
- How Jessica’s empathy has always been a double-edged sword in her life
- Why Jessica ended up in the field of caring for others in the first place
- How hiring someone else to help deal with the commotion surrounding dying can allow you to really focus on your passing family member in those final moments
- Some of the things Jessica wishes she had done with her loved ones before they had passed and why those things are so important
FAVORITE QUOTE:
“The family’s responsibility is to just be there for the passing family member. Talk about the good times, relive memories, and all of the good stuff.”
- Jessica Spalo
