This webinar offered valuable insights into helping individuals create lasting messages of love, support, and wisdom for loved ones to have, long after the writer has died. The session introduced two innovative tools: Willow’s 5-Minute Legacy Love Letter® presented by Reena Lazar, which uses six simple prompts to help people create heartfelt messages that connect loved ones in the present with messages in the future, and Amori (Previously DieWell), a digital platform developed by Su Park, designed to help parents with serious life-limiting illness craft age-appropriate messages for their children to access in the future. These tools offer an opportunity to preserve meaningful connections and may provide the dying person a sense of peace and closure.
This was a wonderful learning experience. Invite your students, colleagues, and your families to listen to this session. You may also want to share these resources at work.
