Hsien Seow and Samantha WinemakerThis podcast can help anyone dealing with serious illness.

I have the book on my bedside table ready to start. Thank you to Sammy and Hsien!

I work in the hospice community. I think it is so important what you are doing. This society is death phobic and grief illiterate.

I was 30 when my mother passed from cancer in hospice care - and it was the best experience for her and our family. We were learning by experience and it took years to wrap our heads’ around her passing. Beautiful interviews and such wonderful conversations!! I too have become so impassioned about sharing what death and dying are really like. Thank you for your candid and meaningful discussions Hsien and Sammy!

However, I am just an ordinary person with only a small social media following so it’s impossible for me to spread the word very far. I came across Dr Kathryn Mannix through ... more
