Contemplating Death: In A Good Way

In this episode, Lois and Ed walk through a Buddhist temple in Cambodia and sit with one of the most difficult, yet universal, subjects we tend to avoid: death. Lois opens up about the recent loss of her dad and how grief has reshaped the way she thinks about time, presence, and what it really means to live well. Together, they reflect on how contemplating death - rather than being morbid - can actually sharpen our appreciation for life, relationships, and the moments we so often rush past. The conversation explores why death is something many of us in the Western world quietly avoid, hide, or fear, and how Eastern philosophies and Buddhist perspectives approach it with openness, acceptance, and ritual. They discuss how acknowledging impermanence can reduce fear, deepen gratitude, and help us prioritise what truly matters. It’s a gentle, honest walk-and-talk about loss, love, and the strange truth that remembering life is finite can be one of the most powerful ways to feel fully alive. This episode is reflective, emotional at times, and ultimately hopeful.
