DeathWisdom emerges when we sit together in honest conversation, exploring what is truly present. Everything you need for a peaceful end of life is already within you. I am here to help you see it and bring it to life.
A Purpose Defined
My name is Deirdre Jenkins.
I am a Certified Conscious Dying Coach & Death Doula, Grief Companion, designer of Rituals and Ceremonies, and Ceremonialist. For me, being present to life, and at the end of life is sacred work.
​
My journey into end-of-life care began 43 years ago at age 17, when I sat with a 93 year old woman named Zenith as she lay dying. Since then, I have walked beside many who were critically ill and facing death. Each person - and their loved ones - has been a teacher, showing me what it means to live fully and to die well.
I owe a great deal to Zenith, who allowed me hold her hand and comfort her when she was alone and afraid. ​I am deeply grateful to the mentors who helped me recognize and share my gifts in service to others. I acknowledge my Ancestors, for without them I would not exist, and to whom I owe the fruits of my life. And to the Earth that has sustained life with so much beauty.
​
With deep compassion, I offer end-of-life support that includes coaching, doula services, ceremonial guidance, and grief rituals. My mission is to help individuals find peace, comfort, and a sense of completion in their final chapter.
​
It is my calling to create meaningful, intentional, and beautiful transitions—because the way we leave this life matters.
