#170 From Tech Start‑Ups to End of Life Planning: Finding Ikigai in end-of-life care planning with Imogen Benson

Imogen Benson is a product and tech leader who is deeply passionate about holistic end-of-life planning and care. Imogen brings a great mix of knowledge gained through personal experience, working as  a leader in tech start ups and voluntary work in a hospice. Imogen is  Head of Product at Aura Life and has particular interest in how  technology can support rather than replace compassion. Our conversation explores societal norms around death and dying, reveals the story behind Aura Life, and reflects on technology.  This episode has been kindly supported by the Living Well Dying Well Trust.
