In her late 50s, as she was contemplating retirement from a career as a nurse, midwife and counsellor, Dr Hermione Elliott instead embarked on a huge journey of what she describes as ‘Unfoldment’. She saw the need for end of life care which was analogous to the Doulas who assist with birth, and has since worked tirelessly to found and lead the organisation Living Well Dying Well.
Hermione is passionate about care of the whole person – physical, emotional and spiritual – and about upholding dignity and self-determination at every stage of life.
In our podcast she talks about what led her to start LWDW, and how it was ‘a profoundly creative process’ in her own development.
It’s an inspiring story with messages for everyone, and in particular those who are growing into their later years – an unflinching, but also uplifting look at death and dying. Unmissable!
