Who Do You Want To Be When You Die?

Mar 14, 2023

2:30pm – 3:30pm CT

What if the most amazing person you ever met was on your deathbed? That person could be you! Hear from some of the incredible people behind the movement to reclaim end of life as a cultural rather than clinical experience and liberate people to be their true, quirky, complicated selves through to the end. Renowned death doula, Alua Arthur, and the philosopher of palliative care, Dr. BJ Miller, talk to TED Health host Dr. Shoshana Ungerleider about why thinking about your mortality now can profoundly change the rest of your life for the better.
