END-OF-LIFE DOULA SERVICES
Gentle guidance for the sacred journey of goodbye
Because love doesn’t end with goodbye.
At The Empowered Companion®, we believe that the end-of-life journey deserves tenderness, intention, and sacred witnessing. Whether you're facing an upcoming transition, holding space in the final moments, or grieving the loss of a beloved animal, you don’t have to walk alone. We're here to walk beside you—with presence, compassion, and reverence for the love you share.
We provide loving guidance before, during, and after your companion’s transition.

Sliding Scale Pricing
Compassionate end-of-life support should never be out of reach. Our three-tiered pricing model honors economic diversity and invites shared care.
Abundant Tier
You support full-circle care. This is the true cost of the service - it covers your care and helps us offer lower-cost care to others.
You might chose this tier if you:
Own the home you live in
Have investments, retirement accounts, or access to savings
Have a comfortable income and can easily meet all your basic needs
Can afford travel, new clothing, or dining out regularly
Are able to give to others financially or donate to causes regularly
Sustaining Tier
You cover the cost of your care. This tier is a reduced rate that helps make services more accessible, while still supporting sustainability for our work.
You might chose this tier if you:
Have stable employment and can meet your basic needs without much stress
May rent or share housing but have financial wiggle room
Occasionally stress about bills, but generally make ends meet
Are paying off debt, student loans, or supporting dependents
Supported Tier
You receive community care. This tier is subsidized by the community and is here for those with limited financial access.
You might chose this tier if you:
Have unstable income or housing
Have significant debt, medical expenses, or caregiving responsibilities
Rely on public assistance
Have experienced recent hardship, trauma, or loss
What This Makes Possible
Choosing a higher tier if you're able makes it possible for others to receive this sacred care, even in the midst of financial stress. That’s what community care looks like—love rippling outward.
If none of the options feel accessible right now, please reach out. We will always do our best to work something out with grace, compassion, and no judgment.
Final Blessing
This journey of goodbye is one of the most sacred and vulnerable paths we walk. May your love be felt in every choice, every breath, and every quiet goodbye.
“We are all just walking each other home.” – Ram Dass
