From wiping butts to spiritual revelations, inventor Michael Martin shares raw, transformative stories from his four tours of hospice care and current journey supporting a friend in a nursing home. Through practical wisdom (like why you should skip the bedpan) and profound insights about death itself, Martin challenges our cultural fears around dying while exposing the hidden realities of end-of-life care. Whether you're caring for aging parents, working in healthcare, or simply mortal, this episode offers an unflinching yet deeply hopeful look at how we face our final transitions. Learn why nursing home CNAs deserve more than $17/hour, why being a "burden" isn't what you think, and how death might just be "the greatest day of your life."
