Hey, my name is Johanna. Right now, I live in Berlin and I work as a
\nfreelancer. I write books, host workshops and readings, and I am open to
\nany new projects concerning dying, death and mourning. And that led
\nme to my great passion which fulfills me completely.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n My passion found me<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Rather, I believe that it happened the other way around and my passion found me. I was 20 years old when I had my first semester abroad in the Netherlands. My impulse appeared suddenly: I want to support the terminally ill.<\/p>\n\n Because of this, i first looked at “the end” to perceive life from a new perspective. <\/p>Johanna<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n A lot of things are processes and our way of life is subjected to change and
\nrestructuring \u2013 if we are open to it. So, I watched the end for the first time to
\nexperience life itself from a different perspective.<\/p>\n\n I support people on their last path of life<\/strong><\/p>\n\n As an honorary carer for the terminally ill and grief counselor, I support people
\nand their relatives on their last path of life. Depending on the situation, I am sometimes in the palliative ward, in the hospice or I support families and their sad, dying children at home. <\/p>\n\n To be accurate, dying and mourning accompany us through life. It does not begin with someone\u2019s death. We reduce it to this one, unique moment. But, if we open up to nature, the circle of life, we realize everything is subjected to transience.<\/p>\n\n When doing something good opens up new opportunities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n The care for the terminally ill and grief care is part of my honorary work for
\neight years now. I do not earn money for this. I have always done this on the side of my studies at university and next to my work at university for the course \u201cperimortal
\nsciences\u201d, and besides me being a freelancer.<\/p>\n\n Because i think Life like Death is one big adventure<\/p>Johanna<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n I earn my living expenses through other work: One part through books,
\nreadings, workshops and all the other projects which come my way. Since I
\nreally love the change. Because I see life like death as one big adventure.<\/p>\n\n Your PassionCheck: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n Do you also believe that your passion will find you? Then, ask yourself
\nthe following questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 1. <\/strong>WHAT CROSSED YOUR PATH BY CHANCE AND HAS NOT LET GO OF YOU SINCE?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 2. WHAT FULFILLS YOU SO MUCH THAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS
\nOUT ON IT IN ANY WAY?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 3. WHEN HAVE YOU GIVEN MUCH AND GAINED BACK MUCH MORE? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n Tips: 1. Note down your answers. 2. Discuss your thoughts with a person you
\ntrust. <\/em><\/p>\n\n Johanna has newly published her Book “Liebe den ersten Tag vom Rest deines Lebens”<\/a> She talks about the
\n\u201cten insights of dying people which make us live with more fulfillment\u201d. <\/em><\/p>\n\n In the hospice, I can recharge<\/strong><\/p>\n\n For me, it is particularly important to underline the individuality of each human
\nbeing. Naturally, I support children differently from adults, but each child also
\ndesires something different. Through an encounter, we resonate with these
\npeople and can feel their desires. This is what concerns me in these encounters.
\nSometimes, it is a walk or a conversation, baking together or being silent
\ntogether. Dying people are humans and alive. I laugh a lot when I am in hospice
\nand I always have a good time with people. My time to recharge is there. Then,
\nwhen I go outside into my reality again I feel strengthened.<\/p>\n\n Your PassionCheck: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n Do you also search for the one passion that will make you happy? Then
\nask yourself these questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n 4. WHERE DO YOU FIND YOUR ENERGY AND YOUR INSPIRATION FOR
\nYOUR DAILY LIFE? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n 5. WHAT DO YOU HOPE FOR THROUGH LIVING YOUR PASSION? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n Tips: 1. Note down your answers. 2. Discuss your thoughts with a person you
\ntrust. <\/em><\/p>\n\n This is how you experience real relationships<\/strong><\/p>\n\n For me, it is important to show you what a real relationship means and how we learn to \u201ctouch\u201d each other. Through our school system, we are pressed to norms and rules already. We limit ourselves very often without noticing it while
\ntrying to meet social expectations. The pressure to be successful, efficient and always perform is immense. My antagonist pole is the support of the terminally ill. There, a totally different attitude is needed. It is decisive how we face people:
\nfacing someone, honest, present. We need a culture in which we face and see each other. We want to have this deep connection and love for people but we are
\ntoo afraid to show ourselves vulnerable. Yet, this is not decisive. Hence, one does not go without the other. Life is not possible without death. Sadness is love. <\/p>\n\n Sadness is love<\/p>Johanna<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n In my book, I tell stories which I have experienced as a grief counsellor and
\ncarer for the terminally ill. I show myself vulnerable and I believe in this
\ncourage which carries a chance for change. <\/p>\n\n In our #girlsforgirls Online Passion Magazine<\/strong>\u00a0we present you exciting
