Our days are filled with routines, tasks, and obligations that can overshadow our dreams and aspirations, not to mention overwhelm us entirely! This week’s episode dives into the insights of Jodi Wellman, who shares her unique approach to living a fuller life by starting from the end. Jodi’s journey, inspired by her mother’s early death at 58, taught her the importance of confronting mortality and not allowing life’s dreams to remain unfulfilled. This conversation offers a powerful perspective on how death anxiety can affect our daily lives and the importance of living ‘astonishingly alive.’
