069 - What Dying Can Teach Us About Living (with Dr. BJ Miller)

We're all going to die. (Gulp.) We know this—and we all share it—but death remains taboo, as do so many of its accompanying experiences: grief, suffering, vulnerability, and loss of mental and physical faculty. But by ignoring death, we not only deny ourselves the opportunity to have a good death; we also deny ourselves the chance at a better life! Because, as you’ll hear from today's guest, a palliative care doctor named BJ Miller, those who are close to death have a lot to teach us about what matters in life.
