I'm a retired hospice physician and the current host of the popular podcast End-of-Life University. I'm passionate about end-of-life education because it's the best way to overcome our society's fear and avoidance of death. I would love to see death ed classes in every community for every age group and I'm here to help potential teachers learn how to create their own unique class and share the wisdom and knowledge they've gathered through their experiences. I hope you'll join me in this project!
