What Is the Endings IRL Podcast?

Endings IRL is a modern podcast about grief, death, caregiving, pets, end-of-life planning, and the deeply human experiences we all eventually face.

Hosted by me, certified end-of-life doula and founder of Empowered Pathways LLC, Jessica, this podcast creates space for honest, compassionate, and sometimes difficult conversations about mortality — without the clinical language, fear, or stigma.

Endings IRL is here to help people feel more informed and connected. Whether you're looking at what it's like to plan ahead, caring for a loved one, or simply curious about how we can approach end-of-life with more intention and compassion, this conversation offers valuable insight into a growing field that's helping transform the way we think about dying.

If you haven't listened yet, Episodes 1-3 are out now.

The first episode is devoted to the basics: How Empowered Pathways and Endings IRL began, what EOLDs are, and what you can expect from the podcast. The second podcast uncovers the role of an End of Life Doula (EOLD) in more depth. It also answers what EOLDs do not do.

If you find the episodes resonate with you, be sure to follow our podcast and keep up with the latest topics on Substack, TikTok, and Instagram. You can find us on any of those platforms @endingsirl.
