In this episode, we step into one of life’s most universal yet least discussed realities — death, dying and end of life care.

We hear why these conversations are often avoided, and what it costs when we don’t talk about how we want to live our final years.

We explore palliative care, grief, dignity, choice and the importance of planning ahead, because how we approach death shapes how we live.

Professor David Currow reframes what a “good death” can mean, while clinician Esther McMillan Drendel and death doula Dina Symington share how support and presence transform the end of life experience.
