Diane De Vivo - Licensed Facilitator

Diane is a certified Professional Co-Active Coach and a licensed facilitator for Before I Go Solutions. Losing her mother unexpectedly with no EOL plans in place, taught Diane the value of having those hard conversations before it’s too late. And so, when she was given the opportunity to incorporate end-of-life planning into her coaching as a facilitator for Before I Go Solutions, she jumped at it. She knew she could help others not go through what she had gone through with her mother’s death. One of Diane’s passions is to support those who are grieving the loss of their pets or other animals in their care. Diane's contact details are: diane@dianedevivo.com

Kathryn Koromilas - Licensed Facilitator

Kathryn is a writer, educator and licensed Before I Go Solutions facilitator, inspired by the ancient Greek and Roman philosophers, such as the Stoics. These philosophers contemplated death daily as a philosophical exercise and this head-on, though gentle, approach has deeply transformed Kathryn's life. When she started contemplating death and planning her end-of-life, everything changed: her outlook on life, the things she says yes to, her personal values, the way every single day looks for her... You can get in touch with Kathryn here: hello@kathrynkoromilas.com

Rachel Gwilym - Licensed Facilitator

Rachel models herself on The Beautiful Crone of Córdoba — have you heard this story? Everyone knows she’s a witch but she’s so kind and helpful nobody minds. She has long white hair, and even though she’s very old, she walks with the gait of a young girl. She gazes into her crystal ball and whispers her magic words. Rachel’s crystal ball tells her that we all suffer loss and we all die. Her magic words are I’m sorry, I forgive you, I love you — and a well crafted story.
