About Sula
Sula Britt Johnson
My life’s work is to create meaningful opportunities for connection that values the complexity of our lives. I work both with individuals and organizations to create programming and experiences that explore our mortality and give us expressions for our grief. Through workshop facilitation and one on one time with people, I create spaces to thoughtfully explore end-of-life planning with honesty and care.
All of the work I do is guided by the principles of liberation; end of life care begins in life, therefor dominant patriarchal culture and oppressive colonial systems need to be acknowledged as a major contributor to our grief, our trauma and how we advocate for wellness in our lives.
