Wild with Sarah Wilson: STEPHEN JENKINSON: How to die well

INTERVIEW

Interview Published on March 28, 2023

Original Show Link

Stephen’s wild idea is that we must learn to die well…so that we can live well. This is a challenging and poetic conversation. We cover euthanasia (it’s death-phobic), elderhood (current boomers have failed at it) and not being “too late” to work it all out.

Stephen reads from his book A Generation’s Worth and we reference his recent books Die Wise and Reckoning
