116. The Hospice Doctor's Widow - An Interview With Author And Speaker Jen O'Brien


Listen Later

Jen's husband Bob passed away after a 2 year battle with cancer. Bob was a hospice doctor, so the subject of death and dying were not uncommon between them. In today's episode, Jen shares the lessons she learned from Bob and tells us how her journey as a caregiver and now a widow, led her to create the award-winning book, The Hospice Doctor's Widow: A Journal.

In this episode Jen and I chat about:

~ having a balance between hope and preparation for the worst case scenario

~ Getting messages from our loved ones!

~ How end of life conversations are necessary!

~ HOW TO have those scary end of life conversations!

~ How Jen started a journal when Bob got sick to help her cope with processing his terminal illness.

~ Jen's book The Hospice Doctor's Widow has won 4 awards!

You can reach Jen and get her book at www.hospicedoctorswidow.com
