I’m sharing a new essay today about change, identity, and learning to listen when something in us is ready to shift.

And this Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET I’ll be hosting another online Death Cafe on Zoom.

It’s a thoughtful, open conversation about life, meaning, and impermanence.

You’re welcome to join. 💚

Hi everyone,

02/12/2026

Last Tuesday I hosted my first Death Cafe online and it was such a wonderful gathering of people from all walks of life. We all came with a bit of curiosity about how things would transpire. It ended up being a great chance to talk about topics that we usually don't. Surprisingly, everyone at the end was smiling and grateful for the experience. So I decided to host it again this coming Tuesday. You are welcome to join, have meaningful conversations, and build community with me. To register for this free event, click the link in comments, and if you think this might interest someone you know, please share it with them.

I am grateful to be participating in the 4th Red Latinoamericana de Duelo, held this year in Buenos Aires, Argentina. 🇦🇷

This network brings together professionals and organizations from across Latin America engaged in reflection, research, and practice related to grief, loss, and psychosocial accompaniment, with attention to cultural, historical, and community contexts.

I will be attending as a participant, with the intention of listening, learning, and connecting with colleagues and local initiatives throughout the region.

I'm hosting my first online Death Cafe and I want you there.

If you've never heard of one, let me tell you what it is and what it isn't.

It is not a support group, a therapy session, or taboo breaking for entertainment. There is no teaching, no agenda, and no requirement to share more than you want.

It is a space for honest conversation, listening, curiosity, and connection.

We talk about mortality. About impermanence. About what it means to know we are finite. Topics we don't make much time to talk about with others, as if we are going to live forever.

We gather as equals. Nobody here is an expert and that is exactly the point.

Death Cafe is a global movement that started in London in 2011, founded by Jon Underwood. Since then, thousands of Death Cafes have taken place all over the world, in living rooms, libraries, coffee places, community centers and online.

The idea is simple: gather online, grab a coffee or a tea, and talk openly about death without fear or agenda.

I've spent years working alongside grief, dying, and the people brave enough to face both. And what I know is this: the most healing conversations don't always happen in a therapy room.

Sometimes they happen when someone simply says, let's talk about this.

This Death Cafe is donation based to support accessibility and shared care.

Tuesday, February 10th. 8:00 PM ET. About 90 minutes on Zoom.
You don't need to prepare anything. Just show up from the comfort of your home.

I hope you can join me.

With love,
Adrian

After days of sitting with what’s happening in this country, I finally found the words.
My new essay is now up on Substack.

“The Cost of Silence”

There was a time in my life when I tried to wake up between three and four in the morning to meditate, because many spiritual traditions recognize that hour as sacred.

Today I shared an essay about medicine, healing, and the quiet power of the doctor–patient connection.

Hi everyone, thank you for stopping by and reading my essay.

I just published a new essay titled In Praise of Rock Bottom. It explores how what we often label as failure, collapse, or loss of identity may actually be a necessary point of contact with something real. Drawing from geology, physics, and lived experience, the piece reframes rock bottom not as a moral verdict but as solid ground. A place where the digging ends and a different kind of becoming begins.

This essay is for those who have experienced free fall, shedding roles, certainty, and false stability. It is a reflection on surrender, humility, and what can emerge when control gives way to honesty.

If you have ever felt broken or lost only to discover something quieter and truer underneath, this piece is for you.

On what holds when everything else lets go

In 2020, after years of living with the grief of losing my mom, I traveled to New York to take an in-person training with INELDA, the International End of Life Doula Association. That training deeply shaped the way I see life and death.

It helped me understand grief, continue processing my own, and discover a calling to support others through the final stages of life. As an end-of-life doula, I began volunteering in hospices, sitting at the bedside of those who had no family or friends, where the simple presence of a doula or volunteer could make all the difference.

If I hadn’t invested in that training, I would probably still be carrying so many unanswered questions and buried feelings.

Today, it feels full circle to join the INELDA team as an Educator Assistant. I am honored to keep learning, to grow within trauma-informed end-of-life care, and to continue walking alongside others in moments of deep transition and meaning.

The vesica piscis is two circles overlapping, creating an almond-shaped space called the mandorla.

It is where opposites meet, where tension turns into creation.
In a divided world, perhaps the invitation is not to win but to reframe where we stand.

What if healing begins in the overlap, the small space between my world and yours?
