About The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience:
12-Month Death and Dying Course
Why I created this course:
According to a recent AARP study, there are over 52 million caregivers in the United States right now—and 70% of them say they are overwhelmed. Every single day, I receive messages from current and former caregivers who say:
“I wish I had this knowledge when I was caring for my loved one.”
Or:
“The Doulagivers training is helping me more than I can say.”
The truth is:
We will all have a caregiving story.
Let’s make sure yours is one filled with support, empowerment, and peace.
That’s why I created The GOOD DEATH BOOK CLUB Experience: Death and Dying Course—a 12-month educational journey through my bestselling book The Good Death: A Guide for Supporting Your Loved One Through the End of Life.
What It Is:
Each month, we explore one chapter of The Good Death together.
You’ll receive:
A live End of life teaching course with me, Suzanne B. O’Brien, RN A guided workbook and downloadable companion guide A group discussion and experiential exercise A full 12 month Death and Dying Course
Who It’s For:
- Current and future caregivers ( all of us )
- Death Doulas, aspiring Death Doulas, medical professionals
- Individuals seeking grief healing and emotional support
- Anyone who wants spiritual inspiration and empowerment around death, aging, and life itself
Why It Matters:
Death is 100% guaranteed—and yet, our modern culture has stripped away the education and sacredness that used to surround it.
This lack of awareness is contributing to unnecessary fear, trauma, and prolonged suffering and grief.
But death is not the enemy.
It is our greatest teacher about how to truly live.
When we return death to its place as a natural, sacred transition, we begin to reclaim peace, presence, and purpose in our lives and communities TODAY!
What You Can Do:
Join The Experience and Share with Your Friends!
We have a goal of getting 1 Million people Trained with this vital information.
