GRWE009: A Taboo Dialogue


Listen Later

In the West, death has been seen and embraced as a culturally taboo topic. As if merely speaking the word 'death' will cause a special guest appearance from the Grim Reaper. I personally don't believe that's how it works. Is it uncomfortable, considered hard, taboo, or just a case of Necrophobia? Let's dive into the roots of the fear and anxiety around death, aka passing, and ascend to "understand those fears and how they manifest in ourselves, others, and the world around us." And that, my friends, is what the Death Positive Movement is all about. Let's get into it, help simplify this dialogue, and get ready together.
