I’m so glad we’re connected.
As a newsletter recipient, you’ll receive monthly(ish) emails featuring stories, tools, and invitations.
If we haven’t officially met, I’m Francesca, a community doula, death literacy advocate, grief researcher, and curious mortal. I consider myself a “creative” as I find great meaning in writing and building programming content as well as guiding people through educational programs and retreats. My published books.
