#139: Bronnie Ware - Courage to Live Authentically


Listen Later

Bronnie Ware is an internationally acclaimed best selling author, songwriter and speaker. Her three books include;
  • The Top Five Regrets of the Dying: A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing
  • Your Year For Change: 52 Reflections For Regret-Free Living
  • Bloom: A Tale of Courage, Surrender, and Breaking Through Upper Limits

Here's a little snippet from her book, The Top 5 regrets of the dying: My journey to regret-free living began when I started supporting terminally ill patients in their last 12 weeks of life. Vowing to honour the wishes of the patients I had come to love and to ensure I didn't suffer the anguish of regret I witnessed, I set out on the path of living according to my own heart, instead of how others expected me to.

This is a remarkable story of a remarkable human, which is bound to challenge and inform you, especially centering around themes such as regrets, seeking happiness, being true to yourself, living authentically, courage and honouring time.

In our short time together, we also chatted about the meaning of life, burnout, giving & receiving, lessons from the dying, working in palliative care, intuition, self-publishing her first book, becoming a mum at 45, doing interviews while in labour, living with rheumatoid arthritis & sacredness of time.
