PODCAST
I really enjoyed this interview:
The Five Regrets of the Dying - Bronnie Ware interviewed by Dr Rangan Chatterjee.
“It’s easy to assume that you will live with great health to a ripe old age, then die peacefully in your sleep wearing your favourite pyjamas but it doesn’t work out that way for most people…”
Bronnie Ware is an internationally acclaimed speaker and author of the bestselling memoir, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying - the book about her eight years as an end-of-life carer, the close relationships she formed, and lessons she learned from those dying people which changed her life forever.
In this conversation, Bronnie and Dr Chatterjee discuss some of the various regrets of the dying and what they can teach us about living.
