The two most sacred moments of life are birth and death, yet they are approached in very different ways. Kim’s talk shares how to honor the final breath of life as beautiful and to approach it with both your head and your heart.

She has been a hospice nurse for 30 years, providing care to over 1,000 patients and being present during the death of over 100 patients. She is currently Vice President of Mission Support at Ohio’s Hospice of Dayton. Her professional and personal experiences have taught her to be present and live in the current moment. She has a BS in Nursing and a Master’s degree in Health Administration. Kim is also a certified spiritual director.
