In this episode, we welcome to our Moon Lodge, pioneers of the conscious death movement, Zenith Virago and Sarah Kerr, for a fascinating conversation about how to prepare for death in a soul-centred way that reduces trauma for those left behind and the death-care revolution.

About My Guests...

Zenith Virago is an elder, maverick, guide & respected 2nd-wave pioneer of contemporary holistic before and after Death-Care for over 30 years. Put simply, she has accompanied people to die well, and for their families & friends to have meaningful and healing ceremonies, all leading to healthier bereavements, especially for sudden or traumatic deaths.

Forged by the HIV/AIDS epidemic, with a legal, feminist background, now teaching nationally & internationally, Zenith is a wise and kind resource, assisting people to reclaim their legal rights, & social rites of passage.

She has always been a Cultural change activist, for people to know all their options, to consider them, and to make decisions that are right for them, by working at the bedside, the kitchen table, and by other means of educating and empowering people

EO & founder of the Natural Death Care Centre Charity. TEDX Speaker, Co-author of The Intimacy of Death and Dying, subject of Indie doco, Zen & the Art of Dying.

Sarah Kerr, PhD, is a death doula, ritual healing practitioner, and founder of the Centre for Sacred Deathcare. Since 2012, she has helped individuals and families meet illness, death, and loss with more grace, meaning, and spiritual grounding.

Drawing on animism, energy medicine, systems thinking, and ancestral healing, Sarah articulates what happens at the threshold between life and death. Through ritual and ceremony, she helps people connect with their own souls, with each other, and with the larger forces that support them. These practices bring healing to the living, the dying, and the dead.

Sarah’s doctoral research in Transformative Learning explored how modern Western people can restore meaningful rituals for significant life transitions. Her years of study in shamanic and spiritual healing modalities inform her deeply practical and spiritually grounded approach.

As a teacher and mentor, Sarah trains death doulas and end-of-life practitioners around the world. She validates her students’ intuitive knowing and offers a ritual methodology that aligns with archetypal patterns in the dying process.

Sarah’s teachings support people who recognize death as a profound part of their spiritual journey but who need a map to navigate it well. She helps communities cultivate more humane and soulful ways of engaging with endings and transformation.
