What people are saying.

  • "Avery for the Living was an incredibly eye-opening experience. I was most impressed by the warmth, openness and vulnerability of the participants. I would recommend this program to someone in any stage of their life who wants to honour themselves and enrich their lived experience."

    — Tori English

  • "This 6-week journey with Ali started with a little trepidation in the first session to a feeling of comfort and clarity in the 6th. The sessions were led with such love and the topic of death stirred a lot of emotions. I couldn’t ask for a more compassionate person to lead me through a topic that is so important to discuss but is often swept under the rug."

    — Becky Rate

  • “This course is a gift for the living. Ali is exceptional in facilitating work that everyone on the planet should be doing. This course is informative and transformative.”

    — Cait Wharton

  • "This series was the first time that I consciously explored death, and it was incredibly profound. Ali has a special way of bringing depth and levity to the topic, and this program supported me to feel more peace, and even joy, with the thought of death. I feel more confident and certain that I am living a life of fulfilment now."

    — Cayley Benjamin

  • "This course has opened conversations I never felt possible. Ali has such a way with the group and guiding everyone through this difficult topic. I am so grateful for the lesson learnt from this course and I am already seeing the impacts on my everyday life. Thank you, Ali!"

    — Jadel Baldrey

  • "This series shifted my feelings around death and dying. It gave me the tools to prepare to eventually be faced with my dying self which in turn forced me to actively work towards curating a life I will be so content with at the end of it. I would encourage everyone to take on this experience."
