In this episode of Comforting Closure - Conversations with a Death Doula, I sit down with Elliott Appel, the founder of Kindness Financial Planning, to talk about how financial preparation can provide comfort and peace of mind, especially during life’s toughest transitions.
Elliott brings a warm and empathetic approach to financial planning, helping people navigate challenges like widowhood, “widow brain,” caregiving, and the financial realities of aging. Together, we discuss practical steps you can take now to prepare for the future—whether it’s simplifying your finances, organizing essential documents, or understanding the true costs of long-term care.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by financial decisions, this episode will leave you feeling empowered with tools and strategies to take that first step. Planning for the future isn’t just about numbers—it’s about caring for yourself and your loved ones and creating the space to focus on what matters most.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire.

I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
