The Final Goodbye: Finding Peace Through a Death Doula

When a loved one is dying, who guides you? In this episode of Dare to Be Us, we sit with Shona, a Death Doula who brings light and understanding to one of life’s most misunderstood transitions: death. Shona shares what it means to hold space for the dying and their families, offering comfort, presence, and compassion when words fall short. Together, we explore grief, love, and the quiet power of acceptance that comes when we stop treating death as a taboo. Because the end of life deserves the same care, dignity, and grace as its beginning. 🎧 Listen now to learn how a Death Doula can help you navigate loss, find peace, and rediscover the beauty in letting go.

Love and Care in an Unready System

In this episode of Dare to Be Us, we sit down with Leanna Todd, mom, massage therapist, and theatre director in Nova Scotia, to hear her story of resilience, advocacy, and creativity. Leanna shares the challenges of raising her daughter, Moira, who is autistic, while navigating a health and education system that often falls short. From delays in assessments to gaps in support services, she opens up about what it really takes to care for a child and fight for inclusion. We also explore how theatre and the arts can create spaces of belonging, and where even celebrated initiatives still miss the mark on accessibility. Leanna’s story is a reminder of the daily realities families face and the courage it takes to push for a life that’s truly inclusive. Follow, share, and keep daring to be yourself.

The path back to spirit

In this episode, we sit down with Anne as she opens up about her spiritual awakening, one that didn’t begin in adulthood, but in childhood. From hearing and sensing spirits without understanding why, to shutting down her gifts out of fear, Anne shares the journey of rediscovering who she really is. She takes us through her time in home nursing, where she witnessed powerful transitions between life and death, and how those moments quietly reawakened her intuition. We also talk about motherhood, and the responsibility (and blessing) of helping our children understand death not as something to fear, but as part of a bigger, spiritual cycle. This episode is a reminder that sometimes the world tells us to quiet our gifts, but the soul always finds a way to speak again. Healing... Awakening... Learning to trust the unseen! Tune in, breathe, and allow yourself to remember that you are more than this physical world.

Guided Hands: Reiki, Divine Lessons & the Voice of Spirit

In this powerful episode, Ruth sits down with Lisa Doucette and Elaine for a deeply honest conversation about healing, spirit, and the unseen support that guides us through life’s hardest moments. We explore Reiki as a pathway of awakening, how ancient teachings connect to the present, and Elaine’s unique experience receiving messages from spirit while navigating the structure and discipline of military life. The conversation flows into Jesus as a master healer, the insights from Dolores Cannon’s “Jesus and the Essenes,” and the reminder that every challenge carries a lesson and that spirit is always working to protect us, redirect us, and open us to who we are becoming. A warm, soulful episode about trust, guidance, and the many ways healing shows up when we choose to listen.

Ancestral Echoes, A Walk with Spirit

In this episode, Kelly opens her heart and her history, from surviving a painful marriage and raising her children alone, to walking through the deepest challenges of addiction, mental health, and grief within her family. Through it all, she found her path as a medium, a healer, and a woman guided by spirit. We talk about the moments that shaped her gifts: the visions, the messages, the connection to nature, and the divine guidance that arrives when she meditates, writes, and prepares to support others. Kelly shares the powerful story of a spiritual encounter that affirmed her calling and reminded her that the spirit world is always closer than we think. This conversation goes beyond the personal. We explore the systemic wounds, especially within Indigenous communities, marginalized families, and people living with mental health struggles. Kelly’s story reminds us that spirituality isn’t an escape; it’s a way to reclaim power, honour ancestry, and transform pain into wisdom. This episode is a testament to resilience, justice, and the unbreakable bond between healing and truth.
