Cultural Thanatologist,
Death Educator, End of Life Doula

In 2013 and 2015, I crossed through the most unknown places of my existence: the illness and dying of my dearest aunt and my sweetest grandmother. I didn't know what to do, what to say, where to go. I had no words and no tools to live through that ending, while life kept moving forward without meaning anymore, without destination except the final one: a Journey we never talk about, never plan for, never prepare for, ever. Alone, yet not alone — held by questions without answers.
I chose to leave, to leave everything, my Home and my work. Bound for a distant country, in the Heart of Africa. I returned two years later with Do you speak Amore?, my autobiography born from silence and a list of 500 positive words. Autobiographical writing led me on a transformational journey through living and dying, through grief, awakening a profound awareness of the finitude of the Gift of Life ∞
I have become who I am.
Through Education to Feel project I combine the educational and preventative approach of Death Education with the transformative power of writing, creating spaces where people can meet their own vulnerability, transforming moments of transition into meaningful experiences.
Writing heals, in silence.
