If you work in end-of-life care, funeral care, soul midwifery, death education, bereavement support or a related field, you’ll know this work can sometimes feel lonely.
Not because we’re alone, but because so few people truly understand what we do.
Many of us are building meaningful practices, supporting others through some of life’s most profound experiences, whilst simultaneously navigating our own growth, grief, self-awareness and professional development.
We spend so much time holding space for others, yet rarely have a space where we can be held ourselves.
That’s why I created Dying for a Cuppa®: The Professionals - Coaching Container
What you can expect...
By the end of our time together, participants have experienced:
● Greater confidence in themselves and their professional practice.
● A deeper understanding of who they are, what they stand for, and how they want to show up in this work.
● Increased self-awareness around their own experiences of grief, mortality, triggers and boundaries.
● Clarity around their purpose, direction and next steps.
● A stronger sense of belonging within a community of like-minded professionals who truly understand this work.
● The confidence to charge appropriately and recognise the value they bring.
● New ideas, perspectives and inspiration from others working across end-of-life, funeral and bereavement services.
● Improved resilience and emotional preparedness when supporting others.
● Access to practical tools, resources and guidance that can be implemented immediately.
● A safe space to ask questions, share challenges and celebrate successes.
● Meaningful professional and personal growth that extends far beyond business alone.
This is not for you if you...

Are looking for a quick fix

-
Resist change or are not open to growth, feedback, or self-awareness.

YF - Container Graduate
Your vast skills, knowledge , honesty and wisdom that you bring to the space can be adapted to the participants who choose to join the container. You have an open mindset and work with 'grey space' very well i.e no right/wrong or black/white.
Grey Space is where the magic happens! A gift you can add to your 'Super Power'!!
JG - Container Graduate
Finding my own personal clarity - before the container, I wasn't focussed on exactly what I wanted to do / which direction to go in. The container has given me the right perspective.
The feeling of not being alone in this journey has shifted hugely for me. I sometimes feel (or I did before the container!) that I'm the only one struggling to find my niche, but realising that the majority of us are (or were) feeling the same thing is incredibly grounding. I also value and believe in myself more.
SC - Container Graduate
My biggest takeaway has been sharing and learning with and from wonderful group of people with huge hearts and passion for this space. The openness and willingness to talk about and share ideas and experiences has been amazing. Friends for life and beyond.
I have gained more confidence and ambition to move forward with my work in the Death Education space. Looking forward to what unfolds in the future!

Investment - One-off fee: £1,345.00
For less than £225 per month, you’ll receive six months of coaching, mentoring, connection, resources and community from someone with more than a decade of experience in this field, as well as access to industry experts.
The outcome - priceless
Your coaching runs from January - June 2027.
Built from years of hands-on experience and thousands of hours of practice, this isn’t just a group — it’s your chance to access rare expertise in death literacy and professional coaching. I’ve never been in a position to pay those high business coach fees myself, so I know how hard it can be when you’re trying to grow. That’s why I’ve created this program at £1,345 — to make this mentorship and guidance accessible while still delivering the full value of everything I’ve learned.
This is honest, practical, and deeply informed support, without the corporate price tag.
Not ready to commit to the full six-month Dying for a Cuppa Professionals container?
You can still work with me through the Coaching for Professionals online programme. This option includes:
-
Three powerful coaching videos – in-depth, thought-provoking, packed with questions and perspectives from every angle.
-
A 60-minute one-to-one session with me once you’ve completed the videos.
All of this is available for an exchange of £444.
Please note: this option does not include the full community space, expert sessions, wider resources, or live group meet ups that come with the six-month container. But if you’d like focused coaching and guidance with me without stepping into the full programme, this is a great place to begin.
