Join me with special guests Sonja Linman and Ben LeRoy in a meaningful dialogue about this time in our lives and in our world. My friend Sonja and I are both able at this time in our lives to be still and have the space for quiet reflection and introspection. That gift gives us a new and fluid perspective on how to be in the world.

What might we find when we embrace grief rather than turn away from it? Can bereavement and beauty co-exist? And how can we navigate our fear of death? From existential overwhelm to the therapeutic powers of writing, psychedelics, and connecting with strangers, author of Dying to Live: Finding Life’s Meaning through Death Andy Chaleff—whose mother died in a drunk driving accident hours after he gave her a soul-baring letter—discusses befriending mortality and the silver lining of sorrow.

Ben and I got together on Zoom the other day and had a short albeit rich discussion about different kinds of grief. The different layers of grief, the different names for grief. And in doing that I started thinking about how pivotal grief is in our lives and how sad it is that we spend most of our life running away from it, trying to ignore it or making excuses for it.

We’re going to continue this discussion. We just hadn’t talked in a while and Ben called to check in and there you have it. I hope you’ll take a minute and see if there’s something in it for you.

Love,

Sean
