Ep 5: Palliative Care
This week no ramblings! I’m joined by Tanya. Tanya is a palliative care nurse who cares beautifully for those in the community whether in palliative care or at end of life - yes, there is a difference. What is a palliative care nurses role in the community? what does “a day in the life” look like? What happens when you want to stay out of hospital?

Ep 4: Grief and Human-ness
Grief is difficult and uncomfortable and grief doesn't make anything obvious. I am not exempt from this, and this week I get raw and honest about the basics (if there is such a thing) about grief and its complexities. Informative, helpful on a very small scale

Ep 3: Advance Health Directives
This week I am joined by Erin as we talk about Advance Health Directives (AHD). The creation of an AHD, when you have the capacity to make it (so, NOW!), is the best way to make your preferences known about the type of treatment you would prefer if you are unable to communicate or make decisions for yourself. It's a way to respect your values, beliefs or preferences and should be a conversation had by all.

Ep 2: What is our death culture?
After attending a LOT of funerals including that of my late father, I've observed that unlike other cultures there isn't much "culture" here in Australia. As a western society I feel we lack substance when farewelling our dead. Is it because we're so busy?
Let's unpack this... -
