Join us for Dying to Know Day!

By Journease | 07/14/2025

The Journease team is holding two FREE events in recognition of Dying to Know Day on Friday, 8 August to help demystify death, dying, and bereavement. This national initiative encourages Australians to engage in open conversations about end-of-life choices and support.

You’ll hear from end-of-life planner Malia Dewse, Death Doula Candace Ohanessian, and End-of-Life Coach Iain McKinnon—trained and experienced end-of-life planners and practitioners  from Journease—who will guide you through three engaging 20-minute sessions designed to explore some common misconceptions and provide empathetic and practical advice to help prepare you for the inevitable, not with fear but with purpose.

Join us for a meaningful and informative session where we’ll explore:

  • Planning for your end-of-life
  • What to expect when you or a loved one is close to death
  • When you die, what options are available and why planning for those is important
  • These topics will be following by a Q&A session
