ABODE Academy 5 focuses on Heart-Centered Planning: Making Sense of Life and Death. At ABODE, we know that end-of-life planning can serve as a rich opportunity for personal growth. Becoming clear and communicating our priorities and wishes about our health and personal care, our legacy, our death care and after-death care, as well as how we’ll be remembered, will foster our peace of mind and go a long way toward reducing anxiety, regret and conflict.

Join us for these four sweet – and free – online workshops.
