Episode 8: Understanding Hospice Care with Jai Miranda

While certified as a coach and grief educator, Jai prefers to identify as a companion - someone who listens deeply, walks alongside, and meets you in the moment without judgement. Founder of Coaching for All of Life and owner of Quest for Balance Wellness, Jai has been helping others find meaning in loss through story, mindfulness, and movement for more than 20 years. Honoring a lifetime call to support the wellness and well-being of others, Jai launched their practice in 2003 offering life coaching, career coaching, wellness coaching, organizational development, and other services. Like many called to grief care, in 2011, a deep loss compelled Jai to certify as a grief and end of life coach and shift the focus of practice to grief care and education, end of life coaching, and Advance Care Planning.Jai has received grants to develop grief care programs for first responders and the harm reduction community and serves on several local boards focused on suicide prevention, drug use prevention, and community wellness. Jai holds certifications including Professional Certified Coach through International Coaching Federation, Certified End of Life Coach through Coaching at End of Life, and Certified Grief Educator through David Kessler and Grief.com; and a Master of Music in Piano Performance from Indiana University.
