DEATH TALK & DONUTS. SWEET.

Death & Donuts is a community for people who are curious about death. Through in-person and virtual events we’ll explore death-related topics with an open mind, building community one gooey bite at a time. Let’s talk about death before it talks about us. Amiright?

HI! I’M PERI. I’M GLAD YOU’RE HERE.

I started this community with the goal of giving people a safe space to explore topics around death and dying. Death is not a topic that everyone is comfortable talking about. But you know what makes it a little easier? Donuts

Death & Donuts is a come as-you-are, judgement-free zone where curiosity, kindness and respect always take center stage. My hope is that this community takes on a life of its own – that it becomes a place where friendships are created and new perspectives emerge.

WHEN I’M NOT ORGANIZING DEATH & DONUTS, I’M ALSO THE FOUNDER OF THE MOSTLY DEATH STUFF PODCAST.

I’m a hospice volunteer and certified death doula.
