The Death, Dying, Diagnosis and Doulas Podcast by Julie Fletcher

This podcast is for anyone and everyone who wants to talk about this thing called death and dying, which let’s face it, will happen to us all. We just don’t know exactly when. The conversations are deep, meaningful and impactful. Julie brings together people who use their time and skills, in many different ways, to help, guide and support people and their friends and family at end-of-life and to prepare for this important part of life.
