It’s been a while since I’ve jumped into your inbox because – you know, everything – but I want to reach out to share a few things plus one piece of news I am particularly excited about. I know so many of us are overwhelmed, feel underwater, and talking even *more* about death feels like too much – and as you also know, that’s kinda my job. And sometimes, it REALLY helps.

BIG NEWS: I joined the EOL Collective Team! I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve joined the team at the EOL Collective: All my work founding Get Your Shit Together in 2013, launching GYST in 2015, and the last six months of *everything* keeps showing me that we are often at our best when we’re in it together and helping each other. The website has so many of the features I have always wanted to build – I love that you can see where you’re at and what to get done via the Roadmap, find service Providers near you, people in your Community, and who/what you might need in the Marketplace. So – If you’re part of the health, death, or end-of-life planning community (from financial or legal planning to hospice and grief and loss) and you haven’t joined EOL, please consider joining us and let me know what you think! |

Checklist: Have a ‘What-if’ Plan
This list for when ‘Life Goes Sideways’ is a few years ago but I still find it very helpful! “How to Handle It When Things Don’t Work the Way You Planned.“

Podcast: WNYC’s ‘All of It’
I did this interview back in May and it feels like forever ago – I barely remember what I said but the host of the show, Allison Stewart, was wonderful to talk to. Have a listen.

Oh Yeah, I Wrote a Book!
I wrote this to help make hard times a little softer These days I believe the advice is just as, or even more, important. Please consider buying a copy for yourself or the ‘you know who’ in your life. Get the book.
I’m planning to send emails out quarterly(ish), but no matter how frequently you hear from me, I want to thank you for being a part of this years-long adventure and community of folks helping us all collectively get our shit together. I’m always thinking about y’all!
Onward!
