Hey, I’m Kathleen, the founder of The Everafter Collective. I'm a death doula and end-of-life planner, and I created this space to help people navigate death with more peace, clarity, and support—whether it’s your own journey or that of someone you love. Death is still a taboo subject in many spaces, but I believe it deserves the same care, planning, and thoughtfulness as any other major life transition.

My mission is to provide a non-judgmental, calming presence and help you make decisions that feel aligned with your values. No one should have to face this journey alone, and I’m here to walk alongside you—with compassion, respect, and steady support through it all.

In addition to working with those at the end of life, I also lead Die All Ready—a movement aimed at encouraging young, healthy people to start end-of-life planning early, before crisis or illness forces the conversation.

I received my death doula certification through the Going with Grace program, and I’m also NEDA proficient (National End-of-Life Doula Association) and a certified death doula through the American Clinicians Academy on Medical Aid in Dying. In addition, I serve as a trained hospice volunteer, bringing both professional grounding and heartfelt care to the work I do.
