In this heartfelt and courageous solo episode, Amy Lindner-Lesser invites listeners into a conversation most of us avoid: death.
She explores why we use euphemisms instead of plain words, how Western culture has hidden death behind closed doors, and what we can do to bring truth, connection, and even sacredness back into how we experience end-of-life. With both personal storytelling and practical advice, Amy makes space for honesty, healing, and deeper human connection.
Whether you're grieving, planning ahead, or simply curious, this episode is an invitation to lean into life's most universal—but least discussed—transition.
Five Practical Takeaways
1. Speak plainly but gently. Use real words like “died” and the person’s name.
2. Be a safe space. Let silence speak. Don’t fix—just listen.
3. Reflect on your own beliefs. What matters to you about death and dying?
4. Plan ahead. Make your end-of-life wishes known—it's an act of love.
5. Join the conversation. Death cafés, grief groups like Navigating Through Life Transitions, or a book a free chat with Amy—don’t stay silent.
