S4E17 - The Stages of Dying: What to Expect in the Final Weeks, Days, and Hours

In this deeply personal and practical episode, host Claire O’Berry gently guides you through the physical, emotional, and spiritual transitions that occur during the final stages of life. Using the framework of two months, two weeks, two days, and two hours before death, Claire offers a compassionate roadmap of what to expect — from declining appetite and extreme fatigue, to near-death awareness and the sacred stillness of the final moments. She shares tender stories of her parents’ passing, personal insights from hospice work, and her own near-death experience that removed her fear of dying. Whether you’re a caregiver, a planner, or simply curious, this episode will help you demystify the dying process and prepare to hold space with peace, love, and presence.  Learn more and access the full Dying Your Way End of Life Training: https://www.dyingyourway.com/eol-training 📬 Connect with Us: 💻 Website: https://dyingyourway.com 📧 Contact: [email protected] 📱 Instagram: @dyingyourway 🗣️ Leave a comment, submit a topic, or tell us your story! 🙏 Support the Podcast: ✅ Subscribe — It’s free! 💬 Leave a review or comment 🔗 Share this episode with someone who needs it 👍 Hit that like button to help others find this space Take a deep breath, hold your loved ones close, and remember: You can die your way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
