About liese

Liese Groot-Alberts was born in Fryslân, part of the Netherlands, is living in New Zealand and works internationally as a public and keynote speaker, palliative care educator, presenter of loss, grief and bereavement trainings and clinical supervisor for Healthcare Professionals.

In 1972 her eldest daughter, aged nearly 3, died suddenly 2 days after the birth of her son.

Hope and despair, joy and sorrow!

Out of this life changing experience came her passion for working with healthcare professionals and volunteers in palliative care, death, loss, grief and bereavement.

She had another daughter 2 years later and feels very blessed due to the expansion of the family in the form of 4 grand-daughters, who seem to be her biggest teachers right now.

Her public speaking engagements and workshop trainings cover a wide variety of topics:

take sips of breath all day and night
