🌿 About Leaves Speak 🌿

Leaves Speak Healthcare provides grief-informed, dignity-centered care for individuals, families, and organizations navigating life transitions. We are known for our Elderpeak research, intergenerational program design, and immersive SDoH Solutionary® Fellowship. Our work centers three core areas: aging and elderhood, intergenerational connection, and grief and end-of-life readiness.

​​

Leaves Speak was founded in 2017 by Maurya Dominica Cockrell, DHPE, MHRM, PMP, SHRM-SCP, SPHR, EDAC, IAPMC, SDoH Solutionary®, a dually certified death doula and happiness coach. Our organization brings soul care and public health together to reimagine support across the care continuum.

​​

Through a blend of education, facilitation, and spiritually grounded programming, we offer support to those navigating aging, grief, caregiving, and organizational change. We provide social prescribing services, tools for grief literacy and elderhood readiness, and capacity-building for communities and institutions. Our offerings are rooted in the social determinants of health and shaped by the belief that every transition deserves to be met with intention and care.​

Dr. Cockrell brings visibility to Leaves Speak’s mission through her writing, speaking, and teaching. Her work promotes health equity, dignity stewardship, and legacy capital while helping others build coordinated systems of care that are guided by intergenerational wisdom and soul-centered action.

Whether you are preparing for later life, moving through grief, or seeking to create more compassionate systems of support, Leaves Speak exists to help you reflect, connect, and move forward together.
