We found that many people had experiences of death in their childhood that were not acknowledged, leading to a disconnect with death later in life. The fear and discomfort around death were attributed to societal pressures and the saturation of death-related images in the media. We also discovered that nature and community were important resources for people in navigating death and grief. We emphasized the importance of open communication, forgiveness, and expressing love to prepare for the end of life.Support the showWe very much want to hear your thoughts.
