This powerful (encore) episode explores how understanding death can help us live more authentically. My guest, Alua Arthur is a certified end-of-life guide who shares gentle, eye-opening insights on letting go of fear, embracing presence, and finding peace in everyday living. It’s not about death - it’s about truly living.
Alua’s book, a New York Times Best Seller, is “BRIEFLY PERFECTLY HUMAN: Making an Authentic Life by Getting Real About the End.” Alua has been described as a guiding light. She often forms close relationships with her clients, who reveal to her their innermost thoughts – regrets, what-ifs, secret joys, hidden affairs, and more. She also helps to organize business and legal affairs.
As a toddler, Alua’s family fled a murderous coup d’état in Ghana in the 1980s. She still remembers it vividly. This and more helped birth her book and path in life. This book is for those close to death and their loved ones, and everyone else who desires to embrace life and live a more authentic life.

Her TED Talk, “Why thinking about death helps you live a better life,” has garnered over 1.5 million views, and she’s been featured in Vogue, InStyle, The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Disney’s Limitless with Chris Hemsworth. A sought-after speaker and educator, Alua travels the world sharing how embracing our mortality can awaken us to the beauty of being briefly, perfectly human.
