Who Am I?

I am Kema Ward, a compassionate and dedicated Death Doula with a profound mission: to bring comfort, support, and empowerment to individuals and families navigating the often challenging terrain of end-of-life transitions. My journey into the realm of Death Doula work was deeply catalyzed by the loss of my beloved little sister. This profoundly personal experience instilled within me a profound understanding of the significance of honoring and embracing the end-of-life journey. It ignited an unwavering passion to transform the fear and uncertainty surrounding death into moments of healing and connection.

My approach as your trusted companion and advocate is to provide unwavering guidance and support for you and your loved ones throughout this tender and transformative time. My array of services includes pre-planning and education, the provision of compassionate 11th-hour care, and dedicated grief support. Each service is thoughtfully tailored to meet your unique needs and desires, ensuring that you feel fully supported and empowered at every step of the journey.

I believe in the power of creating sacred spaces and fostering an environment of comfort, respect, and dignity. Together, we embark on this sacred journey, enabling you to discover solace, meaning, and profound connection amidst the challenges and transitions. You don't have to face this journey alone; I am here to provide you with compassionate guidance, unwavering support, and the tools you need to navigate this stage of your life with courage and acceptance.
