Hannah Fowler

Hannah Fowler serves as an Advisory Board Member of the Completed Life Initiative. Through her nursing experience in hospital, behavioral health and hospice settings, Hannah came to know the limitations of medicalized and institutionalized end of life care. Inspired to reclaim death as a rite of passage rather than a medical event, Hannah became an end of life doula offering non-proscriptive death care and education. Hannah is faculty and director of healthcare systems outreach with the Conscious Dying Institute. Hannah is the impact producer for The Last Ecstatic Days feature film.

FAVORITE QUOTE

“Death is a mirror in which the entire meaning of life is reflected.”

 

– Sogyal Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

“Awareness of death restores meaning and wonderment to life, reminding us of life’s preciousness and fleeting nature. To turn toward and befriend death is to step fully into life itself. Perhaps a completed life is one that brims with this vitality. Completed Life Initiative extends this grace through life-affirming, emboldened opportunities and outreach.”
