Paul Johnson (in person)

Barrie Farivar (online)

Barrie Farivar is the Founder of leaf, a voice recording app that helps families preserve the voices of the people they love. The idea came after listening to recordings of her grandmother after she passed, and realizing there was nothing more precious than hearing her voice again. Today, leaf has users in over 60 countries and is endorsed by Teepa Snow, one of the world's leading dementia care educators. Barrie hopes leaf helps others capture the moments and voices that matter most, from their children's everyday firsts to conversations with parents and grandparents they'll be grateful to have saved.

PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN:  

• Death over Tea is a safe space to talk about death and dying. Organic conversations that allow people to begin to feel more comfortable with talking about death among one another, that in turn, can assist someone to navigate those difficult conversations with their loved ones. 

TAKEAWAYS:  

• Participants will leave with a sense of community and support, knowing that they are not alone and perhaps with a little less fear around death. Helping to talk about this seemingly difficult conversation can help people to feel empowered and inspired. Speakers may provide handouts or digitals resources. 

MATERIALS TO BRING:

• Curiosity and an open mind & heart
