Host Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly shares from her heart, knowing that she'll experience loss and grief very soon in her life, coping with the very thing which she compassionately teaches that comforts others. Caregivers, doulas and professionals like Mary Anne are typically the first line of support as they assist other dementia patients and their family members to cope with serious illness, feelings of loss, and the end of life. But now, it's her time.  This episode begins with the celebration of a new building that is shared by both the Veranda Ministries and the Preferred Care Group. An extraordinary collaboration is available to both organizations as they learn and glean from each other. And then there's Doris' story. Doris is Mary Anne's sister and her life is in the balance of God's hand right now. The grief she is feeling about her younger sibling is the emotional response to loss, defined as the individualized and personalized feelings and responses that an individual makes to real, perceived, or anticipated loss. The last gift that Mary Anne will give her sister is her presence, her words and her gift of love.

In this gripping and unfiltered episode, Shelby exposes the shadow side of end-of-life caregiving — the psychic manipulation, third-party interference, and spiritual warfare that occurs when a vulnerable elder is used as a pawn in a deeper energetic game. As Shelby and her husband continue walking through his mother's final chapter, what should have been a sacred process turned into a whirlwind of false accusations, legal sabotage, and dark feminine interference—all orchestrated by those claiming to be “concerned” friends and family. This is not just a personal story. This is a wake-up call. You'll learn: How third-party influence can cross into elder abuse What spiritual warfare looks like when a soul is nearing death Why sound conversation doesn't always equal sound mind The danger of enabling manipulation under the guise of compassion How setting boundaries can trigger generational chaos And what it takes to protect sacred soul exit space This episode is for the truth-tellers, the cycle-breakers, and anyone who's ever had to protect someone they love from toxic influence while standing firm in spiritual truth.

Send us a textWe've been exploring bridges, these last weeks, intersections, spaces where dark meets light, sleep meets awake, East meets West, the physical meets the spiritual, science meets art, and this week, that bridge takes us across the River Styx.This week, I'd like to share a little continuing education class I created for someone I love dearly. Her language as a lifelong educator is continuing education; coursework to keep credentials current, so I echoed that familiar language, using the same methods, including worksheets. The course, which is a conversation, meant to build a bridge from this life to what happens after that last breath.Why? The fear of death can keep us from living a full life.  If we can overcome our initial aversion, I'm not saying becoming full-on comfortable with our imminent death, but familiar with the process, examine (and call out) at our preconceived notions and ideas, clear away old programming, and then use our imaginations to picture what we want to experience after death? Well, at worst, it is a thought experiment that makes our final days more peaceful; at best, we impact the death experience, creating a less jarring transition from life to afterlife. I don't see a downside to recognizing that one day all of us will expire.Overcoming fears of death leads to a full-spectrum life experience. Let death control our every thought? It's the equivalent of wearing a dog cone - those clumsy plastic haloes we put on our beloved pets so they won't gnaw on a hot spot or pull out fresh stitches. Bulky, awkward, they impede vision, movement, the path forward. And the sad truth is, we've put those cones on ourselves to avoid thinking about, worrying, wondering or planning for what happens after we die. I worked in pediatric hospice as a volunteer fundraiser for nearly a decade. Hospice means the last 90 days of life, give or take, depending on the jurisdiction. And the pediatric part? Yep. Heartbreaking. I said yes to this work to pay it forward after our child had sepsis, and lived. I felt compelled to help others. What I learned is that there is medicine in living intentionally, and there is much to learn from end of life care.Country songs beg us to live like we are dying, philosophers recognize the power of staying in the present moment; social media and therapists alike ask us to live out loud, to stretch past our comfort zones, say the things to loved ones now, and make plans to do the trips or visits now, not to put off living until all the planets align. All of that is huge. I produced an entire show  about conquering the fear of death in season one. It's worth a listen.But, today we are on the edge of the River Styx. I'm holding your hand. We will be okay, better than okay for having dwelled here. Let's talk about our last exhales.What to Listen/Watch/Read NEXTConquering (or at least coHave you tried the GoodPods app yet?

E&I Host: Dennis Hyde, E&I Category Marketing ManagerGuest: Erol Bal,  HP Sales Navigator at B&HIn this episode of Cooperatively Speaking, E&I's Dennis Hyde is joined by Erol Bal from B&H. B&H sells tens of thousands of computers and laptops to students and schools annually. Erol answers questions about the new Windows 11 upgrade, and points out that Windows 10 will still be operational, but students and faculty will lose important software updates that protect them from cyber threats. Erol also discusses the new features around Copilot, which helps students stay organized and optimizes the power of their laptop. Windows 11 offers additional upgrades including asset tagging, so enterprise customers can easily disable a device if a laptop goes missing. Erol even discusses how schools sometimes  "over buy" in laptops they think they need, and how B&H can be a consulting partner to help  find the optimal device for your students and faculty, instead of the most expensive device. Relevant Links:E&& B&H ContractB&H Website E&I Podcast | Procuring Apple Products at B&H: The New Certified Apple Reseller for Higher Education"Unboxing" Apple Products on Campus, and Why an Apple Reseller Certified for Higher Ed May Save Time and MoneyCooperatively Speaking is hosted by E&I Cooperative Services, the only member-owned, non-profit procurement cooperative exclusively focused on serving the needs of education.

Send us a textWe are celebrating SXSW 2025 with a feature length film and a narrative short that both deal with topics of death in a very different (and often hilarious) way.Dead Lover is a horror comedy that tells the story of a lonely gravedigger who stinks of dead people so badly, that she is willing to do anything in her power to have (and keep) a lover. We were joined by director/co-writer/actor Grace Glowicki and co-writer Ben Petrie, who describe their "downhill skiing" collaborative writing process, the story behind Grace's unique cockney accent, and as a married couple, where they keep the infamous shovel from the film. Out For Delivery is a short film about Joanna, who is suffering from a terminal illness and opts for assisted death, but her pursuit of a peaceful end-of-life experience is disrupted by unexpected complications. We were joined by director/writer (and return guest!) Chelsea Christer, and star of the film, Deanna Rooney, who explain the unifying connection of comedy, the downside of convenience culture, and their beautiful dynamic as working friends. Follow Dead Lover on IGFollow writer Ben Petrie on IGFollow Out For Delivery on IGFollow director Chelsea Christer on IGFollow actor Deanna Rooney on IGThis episode is co-hosted by John Wildman of Films Gone WildAudio produced by Jeff Hunt of Storied: SFSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!
