    Dec 5 2025
    Meet Claire Strofield, founder of End of Life Concierge Beverly Hills and a compassionate guide for life's most profound transition. With a Bachelor of Science in Pre-Med and five years as a cytotechnologist at the Southern Hemisphere's largest private pathology laboratory, Claire brings both scientific understanding and deep humanity to end-of-life care. Her journey has been beautifully varied—from teaching elementary school in London to executive search in biotech (earning top consultant honors at every firm), recruiting exceptional talent across EMEA and the US.

A natural storyteller, Claire has written for theatre, penned novellas and spec scripts, and is currently working on two novels alongside building her death doula practice. In this episode, she shares what brought her to Los Angeles and how a life rich with diverse experiences has shaped her approach to helping families navigate life's final chapter with grace, dignity, and peace.
