Guided Support

Someone who has actually done this work.

Most planning products hand you a template and wish you luck. The Final Lantern is built and guided by someone who has sat with dying family members, navigated hospice, made funeral arrangements, and helped her own family find the papers nobody could locate.

You can buy a workbook anywhere. What you cannot buy anywhere is someone walking beside you who has been in the room when it mattered.

What the Guided Membership Includes

Four things most people do not know they need until they do.

01

Video walkthroughs for every section.

Real explanations of what each section is for, what most people miss, and how to think through the harder prompts.

02

How to have the conversation.

The single biggest barrier in end-of-life planning is not the paperwork. It is the conversation with your spouse, your parents, or your adult children. We walk you through how to open it and keep it going.

03

What families actually go through.

Honest guidance on what caregiving looks like. What hospice is and what it is not. What happens in the final weeks. What to expect emotionally and logistically so you are not ambushed by it.

04

Answers to the questions most products avoid.

What if my family disagrees about my wishes. What if I am estranged from a child. What if I do not have anyone to name. What if I cannot afford a lawyer. These questions have answers. We give them.
