Summary

The subject of death tends to make a lot of people uncomfortable or afraid, despite it being the one inevitable experience we are all sure to have. In this episode, we talk about our personal relationships with death - how it influences our lives in subtle and obvious ways, the ways we have had to cope with it, and how we hope to be honored when our time comes. We explore the colorful ways that cultures around the world "celebrate" or honor those that have passed, and how we can use death as a means of motivation, positivity and peace. We consider ideas of an afterlife, or how our energy may live on after our bodies have passed. Death Cafés are real-life meetups for people who are interested and eager to discuss death with other curious minds, in a comfortable and non-morbid way.
