Planning is a kindness.
Dying Kindness provides education, tools, and support to help you make end-of-life decisions — before they become urgent.
You can ease their grief
by making it less complicated.
When we die, we leave behind a complex mix of emotions, memories, assets, debts, and physical stuff. Sorting through all of that can be stressful and overwhelming, particularly when grieving. All this gets worse if big decisions need to be made and it’s not clear how to decide or whose responsibility it is.
We can make things easier for those we love by making key decisions ahead of time so they don’t have to.
That’s a Dying Kindness.

Take a workshop
There are two main types of workshops:
Single-session workshops that focus on a specific topic such as completing an Advance Directive, getting comfortable with talking about death, planning a funeral
Death Binder Essentials is a multi-week small-group program designed to give you all the tools and support you need to complete the most essential portions of your Death Binder.
Get Customized Individual or Group Support
If you work best one-on-one, or have a small group that wants to do their death planning together (e.g., family, polycule, friend circle), contact me to talk about designing something that fits your needs.
Host a workshop
If your workplace, support group, book club, or other organization has a need for customized workshops, get in touch!
We can cover topics such as:
Overcoming the emotional barriers to making financial end-of-life decisions
Planning ahead after getting a terminal diagnosis
Environmental options for end-of-life
Handling the decision to age-in-place vs moving
I’m going to die someday.
Spoiler alert: You will, too.
I’m Cianna Stewart. I’ve had a lot of death in my life and I know what it feels like when someone dies unprepared. It’s not good.
I don’t want to do that to the ones I love, and I don’t want you to, either.
So now I help people learn how to talk about death, to be thoughtful about the complex and often overwhelming decisions that are best made well before they’re needed.
