My Last Soundtrack

"To love another person is to see the face of God."

I'm a writer, educator, and serial entrepreneur whose latest project is leading a startup called My Last Soundtrack. Our ultimate goal is to be a comprehensive resource for all issues related to death and dying, but to offer them in a way that's appropriately cool and slightly edgy. Plans for the near future include the development of online legacy resources and end-of-life celebration planning. I am particularly passionate about this work as I've been affected by death and loss repeatedly over the course of my life. I wrote a book about it, and I want to help others navigate these waters.

Death can be a profound experience. That's not how most of us experience it. But that doesn't mean we can't choose a more enriching path.

Ken, you address a key challenge - finding the will and support to implement such a program in schools. Your idea could be a great starting point for building a supportive community among kids, particularly those who are directly affected by death and loss.

Yoko, this is profoundly beautiful. I was encouraged to check out your post because it relates to my project, My Last Soundtrack. www.mylastsoundtrack.com. Sounds, music - I love thinking about what the last thing is I'd want to hear on my deathbed, especially if hearing is the last sense to go. Perhaps we can connect and find some synergy in moving our projects forward. Thanks for all the amazing work you do!

Hi Morgan, thanks for your kind words, and for the profound work you do in your nursing career. We'd love to bring this into hospital settings, too. Shane linked me to Yoko's tremendous work, and perhaps we can find some synergy there. :)
