This week, Therapy Jeff is talking about a whole different kind of BDE–Big Death Energy. His guest Hospice Nurse Julie has been working to demystify death and normalize talking about dying for her more than 1.5 million followers, and is here to encourage all of us to confront our own fears of dying. She and Jeff talk about the dying process, why understanding that process is so helpful and often comforting, and so much more. Julie’s new book Nothing to Fear: Demystifying Death to Live More Fully is out right now, and it is a treasure-trove of compassionate insights about one of life’s most constant but least talked about truths.

Existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre famously said we are condemned to be free; because once thrown into the world, we are responsible for everything we do. It has long been known that navigating the human condition is a scary challenge, and life long commitment to many. But are there better, or best ways to accept, cope or even embrace that source of anguish? Establishing meaning is different for everyone. As always, we hope this light, relatable, yet philosophical conversation between Jeff and Danielle LaSusa provides some helpful perspective that furthers your journey, helping to bring listeners clarity, understanding, and meaning.
