Hello, my name is Holly Malashewsky and I look forward to holding space and being a listening ear for those that reach out. About ten years ago, I experienced a very dark and painful event that became the catalyst for a huge shift and awakening in my life.

This new path, new perception of life allowed me to begin healing and to come home to my truth. I delved deep into a spiritual practice of self-love and compassion, dedicated to healing old traumas that were showing up in many aspects of my life.

This awareness has allowed me to have the capacity to stand with others as they navigate through challenging times.

Through my 21 years of experience of helping families as a birth and postpartum doula and being a mother of 3 children myself, I know the challenges that can arise through this major life event of pregnancy, birthing and parenting.

As a nurse and certified death doula, I have had the honour of holding sacred space for the dying and their loved ones. Currently I am working in a local funeral home and assisting families in navigating their way through the death process, loss and grief.

I am also passionate about creating conscious relationships, as this reflective work really illuminates where there is more healing to be done within ourselves.

I feel blessed to be a part of The Confidants and I look forward to hearing from you.
