On this episode of The AUXORO Podcast, Hadley Vlahos and Zach discuss Hadley's work as a hospice nurse and what it's like to be there for life's final moments, what makes for a good death, the most common regrets of the dying, patients on their deathbed seeing deceased loved ones, how one of Hadley's patients with Alzheimer's saved her husband's life, how Hadley overcame an eating disorder and learned how to "eat the cake," whether or not an afterlife exists, why the best time to have a funeral is when you're still alive, and more.

 

Guest bio: Hadley Vlahos is a hospice nurse, non-profit founder, and a New York Times best-selling author. Her first book, The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments is now available everywhere. The Hadley House, a non-profit hospice house founded by Hadley Vlahos, will soon be open to provide legacy letters, final outings, and living funerals for end-of-life patients.
