42. Noni Allwood - End of Life Doula

Episode 42 is a special one with my friend, Noni Allwood, as we discuss her most important career as an end of life doula. We met in 2018 while on a Cuba trip with 20 women entrepreneurs to help women in business throughout Cuba. Noni lives in the bay area near San Francisco and is originally from El Salvador. She is an experienced executive, speaker and research fellow focused on corporate culture transformation and equality in support of innovation and business success.Noni is now retired but spent her career as an Engineer, over 13 years at Cisco as a Senior Director in Connected Urban Development , which is a global initiative to help solve the problem of climate change in cities. Noni then started her own firm and ran that for almost 16 years. Noni has also served on many boards in her career.In 2021, Noni's sister in El Salvador was diagnose with terminal cancer. Noni spent the next 10 months by her side in El Salvador caring for her until she passed. Noni has now dedicated her life to her new career as an End of Life Doula, which she says is her most profound and meaningful role. This episode is unlike any I've done over the last 4 1/2 years.
