“In your grief, you don’t know how to reach out to people. Because you’ve already become so accustomed to being independent, and just doing things on your own. But we need someone there. That it’s okay, seeing us and our full authenticity, our full pain, sadness, suffering, numbness, everything. There’s something also sacred about that when people allow you to see that part of them. They trust you enough to be that anchor for them.”

Jessica Reis, otherwise known as The Death Empath is a death doula, healer, and intuitive helping others move through self- grieving, self-honoring, and healing. As an end-of-life guide, she helps people navigate loss and mourning in all forms as grief is meant to be shared, nurtured, loved, and witnessed.

She has a way of disarming you with her calming and penetrative presence. I unexpectedly moved through my own unresolved grief during the recording of our episode in a safe energetic container that Jessica held for me. Pain is confronting, and we move through what hurts, we become free.
