NANCY PEARL, MA

I am drawn to legacy work and guided in it by my values, skills, life experiences, and education.  I have a Master of Arts in Counseling from Loyola Marymount University, a Master of Arts in Education from UCLA, and certification in the “Heart Touch Method: Certificate in Compassionate and Healing Touch for End of Life” from the Heart Touch Project.  I have the ability and pleasure to “meet people where they are.”  I am a kind, sensitive person who finds having deep and meaningful connections central to my life.  Some of the experiences that have shaped me and my work are my meditation practice, volunteering with hospice, working with septuagenarians and others as the UCLA Volunteer Coordinator, and caring for my mom who had Alzheimer’s.  Additionally, through working in Yellowstone and Denali National Parks, I have some understanding of the role of nature in spiritual and everyday occurrences.  All of these experiences and education have reinforced in me the importance of not only a life well-lived, but the sharing of that life with others that I love.  I hope that in working together I can help you share your life of values, special learnings, and blessings to those that you love.  Living, loving, legacies are always available to us.  Let me help you share yours with the people you love.

TESTIMONIALS

“Creating a Personal Legacy is a profound experience.  Before beginning this process with Nancy, it seemed an almost impossible task to review a lifetime of memories, relationships, experiences, and lessons learned.  I am grateful to Nancy for being my guide in this important and life changing process.  Nancy is an inquisitive, thoughtful, kind and compassionate interviewer.  Her prompts and questions are thought provoking, and Nancy encouraged me to explore beyond the questions into deeper territory. Her listening skills and follow up questions, helped me to distill my experiences into legacy statements and a meaningful personal document.  Creating my personal legacy was a thoughtful and emotional experience.  It is life altering to be able to look back, and to re-experience the past in an atmosphere of kindness and support.  Thank you, Nancy!  I so appreciate your compassion, your insight, and your wonderful sense of humor!”

“I had thought about doing a video or writing something for my children and grandchildren to know more about me.  I wanted them to know about my roots and the thoughts and actions that shaped my life.  Also, I wanted them to know my advice and wishes for their future.  Until I talked with Nancy, it was only a thought.  Nancy helped me organize my thoughts, and choose the topics I was interested in sharing.  She guided me through the process and was both a good interviewer and listener.  I have known Nancy for more than 25 years, and feel privileged to be a client of Living Loving Legacies.  She is thoughtful, professional and efficient.  I thoroughly enjoyed the process and feel that my family now has the important legacy documents of a videotaped interview and unedited transcript of the interview.” ​
