About Me
UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_4cd4_edited.jpg

I’m Berri,



I grew up in Northern Ontario where we spent our summers on the lake in a small cabin, it was like visiting another world and where I became a water-baby,

I moved to Alberta, with me and my son's life, all packed into 5 suitcases. My dream, for some time was to be a carpenter, so I jumped in feet first. The skills and knowledge I gained are still paying off today.

As my family grew, I began a woodworking business creating artisan kitchen boards and wooden spoons to accompany our daily rituals around food. 

These past 6 years I have been studying about death in:  books, conversations, volunteering, attending workshops and talks.  Recently certified as a:

 

Sacred Passage Death Doula

Conscious Dying Coach

Conscious Dying Educator

When asked, "What's your favourite thing to do?"

It would be having a real, raw, human conversation;

talking about what breaks our hearts wide open,

the hilarious blunders of life that shape us in all our losses

and blessings. 

I look forward to connecting with you, where ever you may be in this deep hearted work.
