Suitable for:

Adults

Discover meaningful conversations about aging and end of life, embracing the joys, frustrations, memories, and transitions we all face. Engage with others in a supportive space of reflection and learning. Led by Robin Lim-Healy, Heartbridge End of Life Doula.

Robin offers a warm, realistic, family‑centered approach as a health care practitioner, care manager, and End of Life Doula. A fourth‑generation first daughter, she grew up helping her family navigate healthcare and end‑of‑life decisions. With over 20 years as an inpatient and outpatient Physical Therapist Assistant, she has seen the full spectrum of aging, illness, and death within our medical system. Inspired by her patients and driven by the need for more compassionate support, she completed the Heartbridge End of Life Doula program to advocate for individuals and families seeking a safe, peaceful, and meaningful experience through life’s final transitions.
