Why Talking About Death Makes Life Less Scary

In this powerful conversation, Alex Ferrari, host of the  @NextLevelSoul  Podcast, sits down with Dr. Martha Jo Atkins to explore why so many people avoid talking about death—and why, in their line of work, having these conversations actually makes death more understandable and less frightening.

They discuss how silence around death can increase fear, while open dialogue can bring clarity, acceptance, and even peace. For those who work closely with end-of-life care, talking about death isn’t morbid—it’s deeply human. This clip invites us to rethink our relationship with mortality and consider how honest conversations about death can help us live more fully.
