This one photo of Matisse says all what home hospice is about: creativity, comfort, and presence. It reminds us that even in our final chapters, life still holds beauty—and everyone deserves the chance to experience that, in the place they call home.

Healing doesn’t follow a timeline.
Trust takes time. Love, too.
A Home Within offers free, consistent therapy to foster youth—for as long as it takes. Not just six weeks. Not just a school year. As. Long. As. It. Takes. 💛

Grateful to be part of that promise.

Sharing a clip from a recent talk:
A simple writing prompt:

“What is your relationship to death and dying?”

Not for answers. For honesty. For a moment of pause.

If you try the exercise, I’d love to hear what surfaced.

It’s time to reframe how we talk about death.

Most “end-of-life planning” skips the middle—hospice 🕊️

Hospice isn’t just a checkbox. It’s a system—with nurses, doctors, chaplains, and social workers who guide people through one of the most human transitions of all. 💞
