Talking about the end of life isn’t exactly everyone’s favorite topic, but it’s one of the most important conversations we can have. Not only does it give our loved ones clarity and peace, but it also creates a pathway to stay connected—even after they’ve crossed over. Caregivers know this better than anyone; they lean into these talks because they understand how much they matter. So, maybe it’s time we stop avoiding the tough stuff and start having the conversations that truly count.

In this Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with the incredible Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider to explore how to deepen our connections with loved ones—even after they’ve crossed over. Shoshana gets personal, sharing her journey of walking alongside her father during his final chapter. She opens up about how caregiving reshaped her relationships—not just with her dad, but with herself and her husband, who stepped into a caregiving role in unexpected and beautiful ways. We dive into the emotional complexities of caregiving, the impact of family dynamics during illness, and how these experiences inspire her groundbreaking work in palliative care and end-of-life issues.

Here’s a taste of what we explore:
