A place for your loss

The death you face
may come in many forms.

A parent. A partner. A child. A job. A dream. A future. Or the imminent loss of your self.

You may be paralyzed. Where can I possibly go?
How can I possibly decide?

My purpose is to help you find the courage to move in spite of.

The approach

There is
life there.

I am not asking you to romanticize the dead. I am asking you to look at that heap of decay and see the truth: there is death and there is life there.

From the decaying matter of life, we find the most nutrient rich grounds for new worlds. The death of one person, dream, or future decomposes into the particulate matter needed for a new world.

In death, there are lessons: new realizations and new clarities.

  • What have you
    come to regret?

  • What have you learned anew about the world?
    About your self?

  • What do you wish you could
    go back and change?

The name

elethant

A creature that consumes death and decay, transmuting it into new life.

From thanatos, Greek for death, and the elephant, a symbol of remembrance.

My motto is to die “livefully.” Living as dying. To reckon with life is to reckon with death.

By integrating the dead, like an elethant, you honor their life.

Begin here

Your impasse is
actually a precipice.

Let me help you forage through your loss for your future.
