You're invited to press your ear up against the studio door and listen in on this lyrical conversation between Narinder and her friend and colleague Melissa Word as they sing of the beauty and the hard realness of Death Work as Culture Midwifery. The conversation grows tendrils that touch on our collective grief, our body's intelligence, the power of keeping prosperity flowing in the eddies of community, and the threshold job that is death work.
Melissa is an Atlanta-based artist, dancer, death doula and grief coach. As a facilitator, she helps people heal their creative lives and explore their relationship to their bodies and mortality.
Her background as a professional dancer has shapeshifted through the years into creating experiences for others to get more in touch with their own way of moving and expressing. As a creative grief coach, she leads a seasonal online workshop for grief processing through quilting and hand-sewing, reimagining healing spaces as ones where our bodies, hands, and intuitive impulses guide the way.
She is a graduate of Narinder's Nine Keys Death Midwifery Apprenticeship.
