ABODE’s vision is “We live in a world where death is not feared, and we live fully until we die.” During this episode, Mary and Natalie go through the Nine Contemplations on Death. If you’re new to giving death a lot of thought, or the idea of death still frightens you, these contemplations are a good place to start. Natalie talks about her breast cancer journey and Mary introduces us to her “Bless and Release” method.

We love the Death Deck!
