    44| Jane Callahan

    Season 7, Episode 5: Jane Callahan on a Meaningful End Jane Callahan is an end-of-life doula and the author of A Death Doula’s Guide to a Meaningful End. In this conversation, Jane shares how the painful, medicalized death of her estranged mother set her on the path to becoming a death doula, and why most Americans are completely unprepared for one of the most universal human experiences. We talk about what it means to design your own death, the economics of dying with dignity, advance directives, the difference between fearing death and fearing dying, and what a “vigil” actually looks like when done right.

    41| Tim O'Keefe

    It was Epicurus that said, “Death is nothing to us, since when we are, death is not; and when death is, we are not.” Today we are joined by Tim O’Keefe, an expert on the philosophy of Epicurus and what this ancient practical philosophy brought to our understanding of the big questions of life and death. We talk about what this classical thinker can bring to a modern understanding of life.
