Instructor: Diane Hullet
Wednesdays, April 15 - 29 | 1 - 3 pm | $36 | 3 weeks
Join doula and educator Diane Hullet for an exploration to broaden our perspectives on death, grief, and the systems that shape end-of-life experiences. Through TED Talk videos, discussion questions, and reflective writing, we explore how our world has changed in caring for the aging and the dying.
In Week 1, we reflect on personal experiences of loss to better understand grief and its impact. In Week 2, we reduce fear through knowledge—learning about hospice, MAiD, VSED, and practical tools that help clarify preferences and next steps. By Week 3, participants articulate their end-of-life intentions and develop a concrete plan for meaningful conversations with the people they love. Sharing current resources, practical information, and tools, we work to reduce fear through knowledge.
About the Instructor
In 2020, Diane Hullet was drawn to the work of death and dying through personal and collective experiences of loss. She founded Best Life Best Death to serve as a death doula, end-of-life educator, and podcast host, helping others navigate the profound journey of mortality. With over three decades of teaching experience, Diane approaches these sensitive topics with both heart and insight, inviting honest and meaningful conversations about life’s final stages.
