Embrace The Void

My guest this week is Brenda Goodman, a mediator with a Masters in Gerontology and a lifelong interest in aging and death. We discuss how she became interested in these culturally taboo issues and what she learned from her Death Doula training course. Part two will involve her asking me some of the preparation questions about death.Invocation: Death from SandmanDeath Doula Resources:https://www.inelda.org/category/inelda-articles/https://www.consciousdyinginstitute.com/sacred-passage-guide-certificationhttps://www.healthline.com/health-news/how-death-doulas-can-help-people-at-the-end-of-their-life#2https://mindfulmeanderingsajourneyinlove.wordpress.com/2019/11/19/doula-for-the-dying-an-ancient-healing-art-in-modern-times/?fbclid=IwAR1Yw0UX-Q-SLf7yb7RzBZFYcWuFHkkZ10w1D5DiSj76tuKLSHZZnB54Ki4https://www.dyingwishmedia.com/https://bkbooks.com/pages/mediaEditing by Brian Ziegenhagen, check out his pod: http://youarehere.libsyn.com/s02e02-rex-manning-day?fbclid=IwAR2L2_YIJvQpcw0nx6nTSfz0GmyJ1DtWsF--vvdI9W1ug3XW7IAtU6dQ36sMusic by GW RodriguezSibling Pod Philosophers in Space: https://0gphilosophy.libsyn.com/Support us at Patreon.com/EmbraceTheVoidIf you enjoy the show, please Like and Review us on your pod app, especially iTunes.

He preferred to answer questions in the voice of Aristotle himself, which gives us a fun opportunity to get to know more about this hugely important philosopher in a classic dialogue sort of fashion.
