An important part of living well is embracing all chapters of life. How do we normalize death in order to think of it as a natural part of human existence? Dr. Tim Ihrig, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Ihrig MD & Associates, unlocks the wisdom of being present to celebrate a life well-lived with Health2049 podcast co-host Bisi Williams as he explores the opportunities in palliative and hospice care. He offers a sustainable foundation that empowers caregivers to engage with patients at a depth that allows for a deep appreciation of living.
