  • Episode 5. End of life Doula

    Mel you have such a gentle manner in your interviews. A unique flow in your conversations, they brings forward just the right amount of your own personal experience or interest in order to relate & encourages your guest to discussion the key points for your listeners.

    Ruth Boydell offers a beautiful service to the dying & their grieving loved ones. What an amazing woman.

    I have passed your podcast on to so many of my “sista” relations & friends already just after listening to one interview.
