Coping with obsessive thoughts of death and dying

I can’t promise that this episode will cure you of your fears or obsessions with death, but I *can* promise you that your perspective on it will shift – even just a little – after listening. And that, my friend, is progress. In this episode, you’ll join my dog Cody and me for a little chat as we walk through the woods. As we stroll together, we’ll discuss how the concept of death drives many of our unconscious and self-sabotaging behaviors (as well as those of the people around us.) I'll also explain how I've healed my religious trauma and found my own safe space in spirituality that has helped me cope with these big feelings and how you can start your journey in this process, too.
