If you would like to read my essay, you can find it at #20 - Live Fully: Prepare for Death - Welcome
In this episode, we explore one of life’s greatest paradoxes: death is the only certainty we share, yet the one event we are least prepared to face. While we plan meticulously for weddings, careers, and even the unexpected, we often avoid the deeper work of preparing for our final transition.
This conversation reframes death not as a morbid fixation, but as a profound invitation to live with intention. Preparing for death becomes synonymous with preparing for life—cultivating purpose, tending to our relationships, caring for our bodies, nurturing our minds, and aligning our actions with our deepest values. Through reflection, courage, and clarity, we learn that readiness is not achieved in a single moment but built slowly across a lifetime.
We explore how purpose, integrity, presence, and service shape a life that feels complete. We look at the role of forgiveness, the importance of returning to our true path, and the quiet discipline of noticing the sacred in the ordinary. Ultimately, this episode invites listeners to live so fully that death arrives not as an interruption, but as the natural completion of a well‑lived story.
