Each month, Maureen hosts a live Zoom call to answer common questions, share updates to policies/laws, and offer direct support for anything that’s still unclear.
A Q&A space for simple, direct support. Gentle accountability if you need it.
Will this course work for my unique family or life situation?
Every situation is different — and this course is designed to help you reflect on what matters most to you. You'll find guidance for handling family dynamics, emotional stress, and difficult conversations.
That said, if your situation is especially complex, or you want help crafting a more customized plan, Maureen offers 1:1 support services for deeper guidance.
How long does the course take?
Most people complete the course in 6–8 weeks — but it’s totally self-paced. The lessons are short (3–15 minutes) and designed so you can make real progress in small pockets of time. You’ll never feel rushed or stuck.
Can I take this as a caregiver or a professional?
Absolutely. Whether you’re a family caregiver looking to plan alongside someone you love, or a professional who wants to better understand end-of-life decision-making, this course can help deepen your knowledge and give you tools to support others.
Is this course religious or spiritual in nature?
No — this course is grounded in emotional, practical, and values-based planning. It honors the personal and sacred nature of this work, but it’s not tied to any particular belief system. You’re invited to bring your own spiritual lens, or none at all.
Can I get help beyond the course if I need it?
Yes. Many people start with the DIY course and later choose to work with Maureen in one of her workshops (online and in person) or work with her one-on-one for additional support. The course is a powerful starting point — and you’re always welcome to deepen the journey if it feels right.
Why is this course $97?
It’s simple: this course helps you prepare for one of life’s most important — and emotionally charged — realities. For the cost of a dinner out, you’ll walk away with legal clarity, emotional peace, and a plan your family will thank you for.
