from The Entrepreneurs Launchpad Hosted by Sarina Russo Entrepreneurs
Melanie Cookes on building The Practical Doula Melanie Cookes shares how personal experiences with her father’s death and supporting a friend’s family led her to create The Practical Doula, an end-of-life doula business. This conversation explores what an end-of-life doula does, why gentle listening matters, and how practical planning can reduce fear, conflict, and burden for families. We discuss Melanie’s transition from full-time administration work into self-employment, the role of coaching and networking in getting her business off the ground, and the wide range of support she now offers clients facing end-of-life decisions.
