An online Workshop with Sarah Kerr, PhD
The Deathwalker's Starter Kit
A Guide to Bringing Your Medicine Into the World
For healers, end-of-life practitioners, and ordinary mortals Â
Wondering why you’re drawn
to death and the unseen?
If you’re called to deathcare in a way you just can’t explain, you’re likely carrying the archetypal energy of the Deathwalker.
This healing energy is yearning to be met, validated, and expressed in service of your community.
The Deathwalker's Starter Kit will give you the framework to make sense of your experiences, so you can live your soul’s truth with confidence.
Take heart.
You’ve come to the right place.
Â
✤ Activate the wisdom of your soul's calling ✤Â
Make sense of your connections to death, loss, and the unseen.Â
Validate your intuitive intelligence around death and dead people.
Learn how to claim, develop, and deepen your Deathwalker identity.
There’s a name for what you feel.
It’s the path of Deathwalker, and it has roots, lineage, purpose, and meaning.Â
Your experiences are part of a larger pattern
Signs the Deathwalker archetype may be active in you:
✤ You’re sensitive to spiritual energies, and perhaps you’ve had mystical experiences around death or dead people.
✤ You’re the one people turn to when there’s been a death, and you know what to do, even if you don’t know how you know it.
✤ You may have been initiated by your own grief and significant losses and now you want to turn your pain into purpose.
✤ You have a sense that death is part of your life’s work, even if you don’t know what that looks like yet.
✤ You know that death doesn’t have to be as hard as we make it in dominant culture, and you want to help change that.
This energy can be hard to carry on your own
What it’s like to live in a death-denying culture:
✤  Being judged by family and friends as weird, morbid, or wrong for your experiences or your interests.Â
✤  Feeling alone in your sensitivities and intuitive knowing (perhaps even wondering if you’re making it all up.)Â
✤  Not knowing if your experiences around death mean something, or if your sense of a calling is valid.
✤ Doubting your skills, capacity, legitimacy or qualification, which may lead to dismissing or hiding your calling
✤ Yearning for peers and mentorship, and a lineage that feels trustworthy, ethical, and inclusive.Â
✤ Lacking a language or framework to describe what you’re experiencing - to yourself or to others.
✤ Worrying that your calling is “too much”, “too strange”, or just not welcome in professional spaces.
 What you feel is real
Make sense of what’s coming through you
Finding a structure and language to hold your experiences will grow your confidence and self-trust.
When you understand the deeper patterns of the Deathwalker’s path, the healing gift you carry for the world will begin to take shape.Â
"It’s like a path that’s been lit up on the runway. It’s why I’m here, it’s why I was always here. My life now blows my mind."
– DIANA N.
"I’ve finally found my home. Sarah, your straightforward and clear descriptions have placed the welcome mat at the door of my soul."
– KAREN B.
"This course has helped me find the truth and purpose and practice for what I felt inside me but didn’t know how to bring into form."
– MARINA P.
A Note From SarahÂ
Dear Friends,
The contents of this workshop are near and dear to my heart, and this is the only time I’ll be teaching them live. After the workshop, the recordings will be turned into a self-paced, downloadable course. Â
This is an invitation-only event for those who of you who registered for The Deathwalker's Path Webinar. This 4-hour gathering will be a wonderful chance to connect with me and also to meet fellow Deathwalkers. Â
I’m excited about sharing this material with you in such a direct and interactive way. Â
Now, more than ever, we need this medicine to grow and flourish. I hope you’ll consider joining us. Â
With much love,Â
Sarah

Give your soul’s
knowing a home
When your energetic sensitivity and intuitive knowing about death and loss is validated, your sense of how you fit into the world will change.Â
As the parts of you that may have felt unusual or unconventional are welcomed, you’ll begin to claim who you truly are, and the value of the soul-medicine you carry.
You make sense. More than you know.
Find a framework for what you feel but can’t explain
In this live workshop, you’ll understand why you’re drawn to death, and why your sensitivity, intuition, and presence are not only real, but meaningful and valuable.
You’ll find the language, validation, and community to reveal your experiences as part of an ancient archetypal calling.
You’ll leave with clarity, grounding, self-trust, and a deep sense of belonging.
After the workshop, you’ll be able to say:
✤ “I understand what I’m experiencing and why.”
✤ “I know this calling is real.”
✤ “I have language for who I am.”
✤ “I know what to do next.”
