Dear Friends,
Here’s a warm welcome to anyone drawn to support the soul’s journey through death and loss.
If you know there’s more to death, and life, than mainstream culture acknowledges, you’re in the right place.
I invite you to join our circle of healers and learners, and to awaken the Deathwalker medicine and healing wisdom you carry in your bones.
In this small-cohort initiatory immersion, you’ll find the path you’ve been seeking, along with the skills, support and community to walk it with confidence.
You’ll develop your unique medicine gifts and learn to support your family, friends, clients, or patients to find healing and meaning in the midst of loss.
If these words resonate for you, I invite you to answer that inner call, and join our transformative learning community.
We’d be honoured to support you on your journey.
With much love,

My Deathwalker Journey
My Deathwalker Journey
I know, from personal experience, how hard it is to be attuned to energetic and spiritual realities in a culture that doesn’t recognize or validate them.
As a beginning Deathwalker, I had to figure out my own path of learning and service. I created the Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification to give you the structure, and support I wish I’d had.

The Path of the Deathwalker
If you’re feeling a nudge to help people meet death in a more soul-based way, you likely carry the archetypal energy of the Deathwalker.
You may sense that death is more than a physical event, but lack the language or framework to articulate what you feel. You may trust your intuition, but struggle to stand fully behind it. You may feel called to serve, but not know how to bring your gifts into practice.
The Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification is a place where your Deathwalker wisdom is welcomed, cultivated, and put to use.
Join us to deepen your inner knowing, develop your healing gifts, and learn to confidently guide others through death, loss, and transformation.

“I’ve had experiences around death and the unseen my whole life, but I never really had language for them. This training helped me make sense of things I’d been trying to understand for decades.”
— Marie K.
“I honestly didn’t realize how lonely I’d been until I found this community. For years I kept a lot of my experiences to myself because I didn’t know who would understand. Being in a group of people who just got it was such a relief.”
— Susan M.
“I spent so much time questioning myself. Was I imagining things? Was I reading too much into it? Now I trust what I’m sensing, and I feel much more confident in how I work with it.”

How this differs from a Death Doula training:
Death doula trainings generally teach students to honor the spiritual beliefs of the dying person and their family, rather than offer their own spiritual perspective.
The Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification prepares you for a different role and will add valuable tools to your death doula’s medicine bag.
For clients who desire it, Sacred Deathcare Guides are trained to offer explicit spiritual guidance around death and loss, rooted in a nature-based spiritual worldview.
Sacred Deathcare Guide training is the perfect complement to a death doula training.

As a Sacred Deathcare Guide, you’ll be able to:
• Understand and explain the non-ordinary experiences that arise around death and loss
• Meaningfully answer many of the questions people have about the soul’s journey across the veil
• Offer practical spiritual frameworks, rituals, and language that support healing around death and loss
• Sense what’s energetically blocked in a situation and help love and grief flow more freely
You’ll learn not only how to support people through the physical experience of death, but also how to guide them through its spiritual, ritual, and transformational dimensions.

Professional Development and Personal Growth
This training offers you both. It focuses on the deep work of offering soul-support to dying and grieving people, whatever the context.
Some graduates use their learning to support family and friends.
Others integrate it into their existing work as death doulas and helping practitioners in a variety of fields, but preparing you to offer Sacred Deathcare services in the marketplace is not our goal.
No matter how you plan to use your learning this program will help you claim your innate healing gifts and step into the world as a skilled and confident Deathwalker.

“As a nurse, I’ve always kept my spiritual side a little bit hidden. This course gave me a way to bring the spiritual dimension into my work in a grounded, practical way. It’s changed how I show up with my colleagues, and for my patients.”
— Rebecca G.
“I loved my death doula training and I learned valuable skills, but it was all about what happens in this world. The Sacred Deathcare Guide training has allowed me to stand with one foot in each world, which is a much better fit for who I truly am.”

“This training filled the gap between clinical care and soul care. It helped me understand how to support the spiritual and emotional dimensions of dying in a way that feels both true to who I am, and helpful for my clients.”

About the Program
The Sacred Deathcare Guide Certification is as much about who you become as what you learn.
This six-month, two-semester program program invites you on an initiatory journey to claim and embody the Deathwalker gifts you carry for your community.
As you transform how you meet death and loss, you’ll strengthen your medicine body and discover your own unique way of practicing Sacred Deathcare.
You’ll learn concepts, frameworks, and practices, but this is far more than an intellectual exercise. It’s an intensive ritual learning laboratory dedicated to personal and cultural transformation.
