We will schedule two one-hour video calls to go through all of the questions I have to understand your relationship with death, what you want and need, and the planning of the smaller details. After we have completed the questions, I will write up your Big Sleep Document (a summary document stating all of your desires and wishes). Finally, we will meet again and you will have the opportunity to review the summary and we can make any necessary edits before it is finalized.

Yes, you can bring whoever would be helpful in planning your ideal death.

I also offer an add on service after we've completed your Big Sleep Document. During this, we will schedule a core circle review session with your family and/or friends to go over your death plan and make sure they understand everything.

Absolutely not! I'd recommend everyone should have a death plan (yes I have one too) because you never know what might happen tomorrow.

Although you might have more clarity on your answers and what you want the older you are or if you are faced with a terminal illness, the Big Sleep Document is designed to be updated and edited as you gain more clarity or change your mind over time.

I recommend talking through it with your spouse, children, close friends, siblings, or whoever will likely be the “point person” when you die. Make sure they understand everything and have any questions clarified. You can also print or email your Big Sleep Document to anyone who might need it.

I will send you an editable Google Doc with all of the questions I go through with clients during the Big Sleep Consulting. You can then go through and answer them on your own and create your own Big Sleep Document stating your desires and wishes.

Death is a difficult conversation to have, especially for those closest to us. If you have someone in you life who isn’t comfortable talking to you about your death, I am more than willing to meet with them 1:1 (or with you) to review your Big Sleep Document as well as answer any questions they may have.

Your Big Sleep Document is exactly that, YOURS! If you want to make changes, you can edit it on your own at any point, or you can schedule another session with me and we can make and review the changes together.

The Big Sleep Document is a 1-2 page summary of your death wishes, needs, and plans. This is what you will walk away with after our planning sessions and it can be printed or emailed and shared to anyone who might need it in order to make sure you have the most ideal death experience possible.

There is nothing required before our first session. I have an extensive set of questions designed to answer all possible scenarios and to make sure your final Big Sleep Document has everything covered for your ideal death plan.

Planning your Big Sleep Document is not intended to be difficult however, discussing death can be an emotional topic. The questions are broken up into various sections and there are many spots where we pause to check in on how you are feeling. If at any point it becomes too much, we can move to a different section, skip questions, or stop the session and continue at a later date.

Generally, you should be updating your will every 3-5 years. I'd recommend revisiting your death plan whenever you update your will or anytime something changes in your life that might impact your finial wishes.
