Ellie is a hospice nurse of over 20 years. She also worked with many dying people as an herbalist, in the 80s and 90s, helping them to discover ways to find comfort. Though she could not offer cures for their life-threatening diseases, she was able to help them elongate their lives with a focus on enjoying what time they had left. They shared deep and profound conversations with her, and Ellie found she was comfortable in these discussions. In the late 90s, she embarked on a nursing career and chose end-of-life-care as her medical focus. During her hospice nursing career the dying patients she cared for often shared their thoughts, fears, and visions around death with Ellie, and she was inspired to learn from them. She carried journals in her car to record the details of the profound conversations they were having. This was when the seeds of her books were planted. She wrote at length about the incredible unexplained events she was witnessing and the important lessons she was learning from these experts on dying—the patients. Since writing her books Ellie has been requested for radio and podcast interviews and facilitated virtual training sessions to teach people how to sit compassionately with the dying, how to manage the common questions that arise at the end of life, and what the frequently seen end-of-life behaviors represent. She has a podcast, Pearls of Passage, where she discusses topics such as accepting change, the power of forgiveness, the spiritual aspects of life, recognizing messages from beyond, and how discovering a connection to your spirit and soul purpose opens doors you never knew existed.
