Sacred Care of Angela Shook

Legacy Untethered™ VOICES podcast interview featuring Angela Shook, end-of-life doula and instructor, companion animal doula, past president of the National End of Life Doula Alliance (NEDA), co-author of The Doula Tool Kit*, pet loss grief specialist, and my mentor.

Angela shares how her experience as a hospice volunteer and caring for her grandfather during his final weeks inspired her to pursue this meaningful work, her evolution from human end-of-life care to companion animal doula work, and the importance of validating grief and creating legacy projects and other meaningful memorials. The discussion also touches on the growing awareness and acceptance of end-of-life doulas in society, with Angela noting how the field has evolved from having 180 members in NEDA to now thousands, and how COVID-19 brought more attention to death and dying.

Angela emphasizes that while the work can be challenging, anyone with the heart for it can succeed.

Spirit Gifts of Jeff Wellman

Legacy Untethered™ VOICES podcast interview featuring Jeff Wellman, a real estate entrepreneur who transformed his life through meditation after facing financial collapse and his wife's terminal cancer diagnosis.

Jeff shares how meditation helped him discover spiritual insights that became the foundation of his book Spirit Gift, which explores the seven planes of existence beyond Earth. He discusses his meditation practice, which involves focusing on light energy, and explains how intuition gained through meditation can guide business decisions.

Wellman describes his journey from being a Type A personality who dismissed meditation as a "waste of time" to becoming someone who recognizes meditation as a tool for intuition, knowledge, and spiritual growth.

The conversation covers his personal transformation, his legacy in real estate (and music,) and his current mission to help others discover the benefits of meditation and spiritual growth through his book and presentations.
