Founder & Lead Guide
Meet Meg Dunn
After losing her father in law unexpectedly in 2025, Meg found herself overwhelmed — not just by grief, but by the mountain of practical decisions that had to be made without any guidance or preparation. Important documents were scattered. Digital accounts were inaccessible. Cherished belongings had no clear home. The family spent months untangling what could have been handled in a single afternoon.
That experience changed everything. Meg spent the next three years training in end-of-life planning, estate organization, and legacy documentation — driven by a single conviction: no family should have to go through what hers did.
Today, The Goodbye Guardian serves families across the country, helping them turn a difficult topic into a meaningful gift — one that brings clarity, comfort, and peace of mind for everyone involved.

Our mission
To make end-of-life planning accessible, compassionate, and empowering — so every family can face the future with clarity instead of chaos.

We meet every client where they are, without judgment, pressure, or urgency.
Radical clarity
We turn overwhelming complexity into simple, actionable steps that anyone can follow.
Deep respect
We honor the weight of this work and treat every story, every family, and every wish with reverence.
