Can You Handle the Tough Conversations? - with Kim Medici Shelquist
Kim Medici Shelquist is one of the people working at the Love Always Project, whose mission is to encourage people to think more positively and proactively about end-of-life issues and funeral prearrangement. The Love Always team works with individuals and professionals to encourage normalizing tough conversations and emphasizes the importance of sharing stories and experiences now, while there is still time.
The basis of the Project is the idea that people are hesitant to talk about all the issues surrounding the end of one's life - and Kim is quick to emphasize that this isn't just about the last hours or the last days of life; it's about the last STAGE of life. The sooner we can bring the conversation out in the open and start to share things, the easier that last stage becomes.
With information about all aspects of life - healthcare, finances, memories, basic communication - the Project website has resources to support people as they traverse this road.
Open to all, because we find ourselves in need at different stages of our life.
