They sit down with Dr. Kathy Kortes-Miller, author of <em>Talking About Death Won’t Kill You</em>, to discuss how to guide loved ones, navigate fears and unfinished business, and maintain hope and connection even in life’s final days. Drawing on real-life stories—from pre-death rituals to conversations with children—Kathy offers practical guidance for listening, supporting, and creating meaningful moments.
