How to Talk About Death With Your Friends and Family (Without Making It Awkward):

You know you should talk to your family about your end-of-life wishes, funeral preferences, or what happens after you're gone—but every time you try to bring it up, the conversation dies before it starts. It's not that they don't care—it's that no one taught us how to do this without it feeling morbid, uncomfortable, or like we're ruining our time together. We've been conditioned to avoid these conversations until there's a crisis, so when someone brings them up out of nowhere, they feel heavy and scary. But when you approach it differently—casually, early, and with intention—it stops being this "big death talk" and becomes just another important conversation, like planning a trip or talking about money. The discomfort shrinks when you remove the urgency and the secrecy. In this episode, we'll cover three things: How to start a conversation about death naturally – the exact prompts and moments that can make it easy What to actually say when people shut down – how to handle resistance with compassion and gentleness. How to keep the conversation going over time – why one talk isn't enough, and how to make it ongoing - keeping the conversation going helps to normalize and destigmatize it. And that is our mission here. By the end of this episode, you'll have a handful of simple, tested approaches that take the weight off these conversations—and maybe even make them something your family actually thanks you for starting. Because the truth is, the people who love you want to know what matters to you. They just need permission to talk about it.
