DESCRIPTION:Join us for the 4th annual Death Fest! Come out for a day of education\, self-reflection\, and creative expression focused on the experience of being mortal humans who love and grieve together.\nLearn about choices regarding the dying process\, after-death body care\, and green burial. Connect with ancient\, inner\, and collective wisdom around dying and grief. Experience the art and songs\, knowledge and skills of members of our community who regularly tend the hearth of death and dying.\n\n \nSCHEDULE:11:00 – 12:00 — Event Opens (arrive and explore)12:00 – 12:30 — Opening Circle12:30 – 4:30 — Workshops and Other Activities4:45 – 7:00 — Closing Circle\, Music\, and Shared Meal\n\n\n \n02:00 PM – 03:00 PM\nConversations That Shape Care: An Introduction to Advance Care Planning \n\nCryst’l Scheer – Summit Care Partners\n\nAdvance care planning is about more than completing an advance directive. In this interactive workshop\, participants will explore the values\, goals\, relationships\, and preferences that can help guide healthcare decisions when they are unable to speak for themselves. We will consider the role of a healthcare agent\, reflect on what matters most to us\, and practice having some of the conversations that make our wishes easier for others to understand and honor. Participants will also learn how to translate these conversations into a meaningful advance directive\, along with options for creating or updating one. This workshop is designed for adults at any stage of life and offers a practical\, reflective starting point for planning before a medical crisis occurs. \n\n  \n\n***************************************************************** \n\nParticipants are encouraged to stay for the full event\, but are welcome to come and go as needed.\nWe will open and close in a circle of communion. In between\, there will be a rich array of opportunities to learn\, restore\, and grow. We will expand our knowledge and awareness\, reflect on our experiences\, hold grief close\, sing\, connect\, and create. We will share a meal\, honor our ancestors\, listen\, open\, celebrate\, and breathe\, all in the embrace of the Blue Ridge Mountains.\n \n\nSHARED MEAL: Following the day of workshops and activities\, we’ll share in a nourishing meal of soup and salad prepared by the team at Rodeo Catering! (Gluten-free and vegan options will be available)\n \nThis event is a shared endeavor among Woven Roots Collective\, Hospice of the Piedmont\, and Panorama Natural Burial.\n\n \nTICKETS: As space is limited\, advance registration is required for this event. Admission is by pay-what-you-can donation (consider a sliding scale of $20-$100 depending on your financial flexibility). Your donation helps cover event costs and supports this work continuing in the community.

SUMMARY:Financial Peace of Mind: Practical Bookkeeping for End-of-Life Doulas
DESCRIPTION:Practical bookkeeping for end-of-life doulas: choose the right tools\, understand your numbers\, track expenses\, and prepare for taxes. \n\n\n\n\nAs an end-of-life doula\, your energy belongs with your clients and their families\, not lost in a tangle of receipts\, mismatched Venmo transactions\, and tax anxiety. Yet for many practitioners\, finances feel like something done “by the seat of your pants\,” leaving you wondering whether your records would hold up to scrutiny or if you’re leaving money on the table. \nDesigned specifically for the Virginia End of Life Doula Collective\, this 90-minute practical workshop with bookkeeper and fractional CFO Casey Royer of Creative Rhythm Solutions strips away generic corporate jargon to give you a clear\, doula-centered approach to business finances. Whether you’re just launching your practice or looking to graduate from messy spreadsheets to streamlined software\, you’ll leave with actionable tools to manage your money confidently and legally in the Commonwealth of Virginia. \nWhat You’ll Walk Away With: \n\nThe Right Software Fit: A direct comparison of popular bookkeeping tools (and which ones to avoid so you don’t pay for features you’ll never use).\nService vs. Product Accounting: How to track your advance care planning and bedside services alongside physical items like workbooks\, printed binders\, or vigil kits without overcomplicating inventory.\nFinancial Literacy Demystified: How to easily read a Profit & Loss (P&L) and Cash Flow statement so you actually understand your business’s health.\nVirginia Tax & Compliance Essentials: Clear guidance on expense tracking\, separating business from personal spending\, and why tax time doesn’t have to be terrifying.\nThe DIY vs. Outsourcing Threshold: A self-assessment checklist to know whether to keep handling your books yourself or hire an expert—plus the exact questions to ask when vetting a bookkeeper who understands solo care practices.

SUMMARY:Streamlined Back-End Systems for a Sustainable Doula Practice
DESCRIPTION:Build simpler systems for your doula practice with better intake\, scheduling\, automation\, boundaries\, and client workflows. \n\n\n\n\nMost end-of-life doulas aren’t overwhelmed by time spent at the bedside\, they’re drowning in the invisible administrative drag of running a solo business. Between intake emails\, consent forms\, appointment scheduling\, follow-ups\, and marketing\, the back-end workload often leads to burnout long before your client calendar is even full. \nJoin Creative Rhythm Solutions’ systems architect Casey Royer for an actionable 90-minute deep dive into building back-end systems tailored specifically to end-of-life practices. We’ll show you how to automate client inquiries\, protect your boundaries\, and organize your administrative workflow so your practice runs smoothly in the background while you focus on client support. \n  \nWhat You’ll Walk Away With: \n\nA Clean Client Journey: How to build a gentle\, professional inquiry-to-intake pipeline using simple form automations and calendar links.\nTech Stack Without the Overwhelm: Straightforward recommendations for CRMs\, digital signing\, and client management tools that respect sensitive work.\nAdministrative Boundary Systems: Workflow templates that ensure clients receive prompt answers without requiring you to answer emails 24/7.\nThe “Working ON vs. IN” Shift: Clear metrics to identify which tasks can be automated\, which should be systematized with templates\, and which require your human presence.
