Helping people and organizations navigate life's most profound transitions.
Helping people and organizations navigate life's most profound transitions.

Presence & Passage was founded by Amy Brennan, an end-of-life doula, grief coach and communications leader who believes conversations about death & grief should not begin in crisis.
Through facilitation, advocacy, communication, education and support, Presence & Passage helps individuals, families and organizations navigate serious illness, caregiving, grief and end-of-life experiences with greater clarity, confidence and connection.

Every person will experience death, grief, serious illness, caregiving or profound loss at some point in their lives and there is no single way to move through it.
Presence & Passage offers grounded, non-medical support through end-of-life and the experiences surrounding it.
The work is not about fixing, interpreting, or directing. It is about helping people feel more informed, supported, and less alone in what is happening.
Organizations spend significant time preparing people for professional challenges but far less time preparing them for life's inevitable human experiences.
Employees & managers navigate serious illness, caregiving responsibilities, grief, aging parents, terminal diagnoses and personal loss every day.
Through workshops, leadership training, communication resources, facilitation and consultation, Presence & Passage helps workplaces develop a more capable and compassionate approach to serious illness, caregiving, grief and loss.
Whether you are supporting a loved one, navigating a serious illness, experiencing grief or exploring how your organization can better support employees through life's challenges, I'd be honored to connect.
An introductory conversation offers an opportunity to share your situation, ask questions, and determine whether Presence & Passage feels like the right fit.
Let’s talk if you're curious about working together, interested in bringing a workshop to your organization or simply want to learn more.
Say hello & let's stay connected!
