I’ve listened to every episode at least once over the last couple of months. So many ideas, insights and lessons learned, and the same to practice.
I have shared many of the episodes with friends and family members. I eagerly await their takeaways.
Thank you Devon. Your morbid curiosity and humane convictions are inspiring. You are moving mountains. I wish you continued success.
I am so grateful that a peer shared your podcast! I will be starting my CPE training this fall and I can’t express how helpful this is! Thank you so much! I am hooked on every episode!

Memento Mori approaches life’s big questions with an openness that allows the listener to go on this journey of discovery with him. It’s refreshing. It’s honest. Its perspective is not unique and individual while being universally relatable. Great listening.
Thrilled that you have returned and even mentioned there will be a season four. This is the first podcast. I listened to as soon as it drops. Your storytelling is brilliant. Thank you.
