Welcome to Soft Landing

Artwork for the letter "Welcome to Soft Landing"

If you've found your way here, something in your life has probably shifted. Someone you love may be dying. You may be saying goodbye to an animal who has been your family for years. You may be grieving quietly, and wondering if anyone can tell. Or you may simply be someone who thinks about these things and has never known where to put them.

However you arrived, you're welcome here. There's nothing to brace for.

Soft Landing is my answer to a question I kept meeting in my years of care work: who stays? Who sits with people when the busy part is done and the room goes quiet? I built this practice so the answer could be simple. Someone does. I do.

What you'll find here

These letters are where I think out loud about living, dying, remembering and grieving. I'll write about what an end-of-life doula actually does, how to know when it's time to say goodbye to an animal, why we keep the things we keep, and what grief is really like (a country you didn't choose to move to).

  • Read a letter whenever you need one
  • Download a free guide and tuck it away until the day it helps
  • Ask Softly, the little automated helper in the corner, how anything works
  • Book a free conversation when you're ready, whether that's today or in five years

There are two free guides waiting for you as well: one for families nearing a person's goodbye, and one for the days before an animal's. Take them, share them, pass them on.

A standing invitation

Nothing on this website is a commitment. If you ever want to talk, the first conversation is free, twenty minutes, by phone or video, with no pressure to go any further. You'll find it on the contact page.

I'm glad this place exists now. More than that, I'm glad you found it.

Soft Landing isn't a crisis service. If you're struggling, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 (24 hours), Griefline on 1300 845 745, or 000 in an emergency.

Letters from Soft Landing

Occasional reflections, resources and small rituals for living, loving and saying goodbye.

I acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Australians and Traditional Custodians. The land where I live and work is Darug Country. Sovereignty was never ceded. I pay my respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and to all First Nations people who carry their own grief and loss.
