Summary

For her clients and everyone who has been inspired by her humanity, Alua Arthur is a friend at the end of the world. As our country's leading death doula, she's spreading a transformative message: thinking about your death - whether imminent or not - will breathe wild, new potential into your life. Warm, generous, and funny, Alua supports and helps manage end-of-life care on many levels. The business matters, medical directives, memorial planning; but also honouring the quiet moments, when monitors are beeping and loved ones have stepped out to get some air - or maybe not shown up at all - and her clients become deeply contemplative and want to talk. Aching, unfinished business often emerges. Alua has been present for thousands of these sacred moments - when regrets, fears, secret joys, hidden affairs, and dim realities are finally said aloud.
