Breaking the silence to talk about the end of life is sometimes hard, but can also be compelling. For those who have had experience with people facing the end of their lives, the conversation is crucial. And if you work with people at the end of life, it is essential. After working as a physician in hospice and palliative care for nearly her whole career, Dawn Gross has made it her mission to open up the conversation, both in her work with patients and in her radio show, Dying to Talk. Her commitment to the conversation is contagious, and what she has to say is authentic and true. But how did she get there? What sent her in the direction of dedicating her life to a shift in the cultural conversation about death? Join us to find out.
On Good Grief we explore the losses that define our lives. Each week, we talk with people who have transformed themselves through the profound act of grieving. Why settle for surviving? Say yes to the many experiences that embody loss! Grief can teach you where your strengths are and ignite your courage. It can heighten your awareness of what is important to you and help you let go of what is not.
